House Sparrow: Hanging on Between Landing and Flight

Some days, you know you can fly

and you try

but you cling to the branch

while your friends turn away.

Wait.

Remember.

This is just one moment

caught

between the grace of the trees

and the sky.

This is what you were born for.

Fly.

What are these? Female House Sparrows.
