Death of A Sparrow

By Fife4

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

The humble sparrow. Valiant and true. Forgotten in time Yet refreshed anew. In flight of fancy Soaring toward the sky, I wave my hand. No more. Goodbye. If I could take wing, I would by his side. For such sights this bird must see But, alas, must be denied. If he were to push me down Back to the earths cold floor, I would bring out my wrath And strike him down to fly no more.
