Sparrows - Copyright (C) 6/30/08 by Dan Sharpe.
A sparrow falls from the sky,
and the world just passes by.
Wrapped up in their cares and woes,
guess thats how the story goes.
Our homes are filled with sparrows,
all ignored, as we chase our tails.
We buy them bows and arrows,
little shovels, and plastic pails.
But the coinage of our time,
like a miser, we withhold.
As years, like pennies, become dimes,
then we discover they've grown old.
Now we've become the sparrows,
all alone, in latter years,
living lives that are so narrow,
none can hear our lonely tears.
