Sparrow
By George O’Neil
 
From “Wings of Spring”

O BIRD on the wire,
What is the world to you?
No vast place of unseen pressing things
Designed by hidden gods;
Just light, and warmth,        5
And air to beat your wings upon!
And that wet green bough
Sparkling in the sun,
Where you are fluttering—
Is that your heaven?        10
