I remember, My usual nonchalant demeanor going completely bananas in my cubicle of a room After enlisting to deliver you ice cream. No, not just any ice cream, Strawberry with bananas and gummy bears. I thought it as an awkward combination But when I got in the car, The sparrows were flying in two adjacent v-shaped formations. Slightly puzzled, I pondered if maybe one day I'll meet a sparrow, or anything with enough courage to brave the skies, Soaring, knowing in time, their wings will tire, and locating a perch is then of importance. Because life's goal, humans and creatures alike, Is to find a whisper of a nightingale's song, Or, possibly, the eccentric taste of a spoonful of their favorite ice cream.
