This morning I watched
On the tree outside my window
Two birds.
A wood pigeon; a sparrow
So very different
One from the other
Sharing the same branch
Singing quite different songs
Living in harmony
Gracious, total acceptance
Of one another
And their differences.
What an example for, us
‘All one in Christ Jesus’*
Each singing our own song
Sharing the same branch
Praising God our father.
*Galatians 3:28
