Sparrows Like Us Poem by Jan Oskar Hansen

Sparrows Like Us



The sparrows just like us

He fell from the dry, hot sky first the male
sparrows, it could be because he was older than here
and had developed a habit of hunting near
the large chimneys at the chemical factory and it was
up to the young widow, she had been a fledgling
the year before to feed and bring up five hungry chicks
and if the weather was not cooling she to would
folds her wings and fall on the bonnet of a passing car
and snakes and crows would be moving in.
The famous actor Omar Sharif has passed away, he will
be remembered but as the demise of a family
of sparrows will like us be forgotten not be missed in
the lottery of life
