Sparrow On A Roof

A sparrow perched atop
A roof
Encountered myriads
A spoof
But he only sung.

The sun beamed upon
The day.
The sparrow sung his heart
Away.
Seems that he had fun.

And though a serpent lurked
Quite near,
The little songbird
Didn't fear,
Nor became undone.

Such little bird one must
Adore,
As he raised his voice
The more,
With a tune far flung.
