Two Sparrows

predictable pairing like plans and lovers two sparrows fly, flirt wing beats hyped to dull the scent of overcrowded news in spring air, grinning scrappy species two birds that pitch and swoop an operatic flow their sheen of relatability braided together a courtship gallantry in circled bolts when two birds fly about you suspenseful joy like an untroubled sigh re-directing thought seasonal movement a flight of promise that opens to the sky

I feel the presence of these two sparrows reeling and gliding over my head in joyful flight.... the two singing a single tune... ! I see here the symbol of indivisible togetherness. Really enjoyed this unhindered flight of promise to the very zenith ! Spontaneous flight of thoughts, Brian !

Greetings Valsa, you are quite right in that 2 birds fly in "indivisible togetherness" - a unity merged with spring. Thank you for your insightful comments on my poem. Best wishes, Brian

"like an untroubled sigh," your poem takes me higher. And, "braided together" plus "circled bolts," are impressive use of language. Enjoyed
