Pam I am
Small but sweet
As a sparrow
That likes to tweet

Pam I am
Your newest friend
True to you
Until the end

I live next door
Yes, you have
Seen me before

Pam I am
Let's go to play
In my house
What do you say?


Passage 2 

     I am Pam. I am little and sweet. You may think of me as a sparrow that likes to tweet. I am your newest friend. I will be true to you until the end. I live next door. You might have seen me before. Let's go to play in my house. What do you say?

1. How are these passages different?
