A Poem a Day (148): Sparrows


Sparrows



We have wandered miles,

Seen no one,



Heard no voices,

Except those of the birds,



Watching from rooftops,

Swaying in treetops,



Sensing something is wrong

In this off-balance quiet,



As if the ground is breathing

And the rain is its tears.



The earth is contemplating

A world beyond sound.
