To Stone The Sparrow
Why stone the sparrow as she sings
To silence her with broken wings
The gentle creature knows no hate
So cast no stones, it’s not too late
Though feathered of a different score
Her song desires just to soar
To live and let love bears no cost
And nothing to avail is lost
Why stone the sparrow as she flies
So sad whenever something dies
Created by a love divine
As life is meant to thrive and shine
There must a place be, to remain
Where all can sing in sweet refrain
So sing, oh sparrow, never cease
To sing your hopeful song of peace
