Sparrow! Where have you gone? <br>Till yesterday you were here born, <br>I wonder, how you're from us torn, <br>Oh! Sparrow! W here have you gone? </div><div style="margin:10px 0">Oh! Sparrow! I remember your chirpy call, <br>To children you were their first pal; <br>It was a real sight, so sweetly pleasant, <br>To behold you hopping around us, hesitant! </div><div style="margin:10px 0">We were in enchantment of your beauty, <br>Nibbling at the scattered grains in bounty; <br>To your cool chirps, we were driven, <br>Our hearts, you did merrily enliven.</div><div style="margin:10px 0">A cozy two-some you were ever, <br>Your flight was with your lover; <br>You eagerly took sand and water baths, <br>At it with glee filled our happy hearts.</div><div style="margin:10px 0">With you, once our houses were dotted, <br>But now from us you have parted; <br>With man, why are you, in strife? <br>You know, you play a role in the web of life! </div><div style="margin:10px 0">Hark! I hear the little sparrow speak! <br> <br>The small creature with it's tiny beak! <br>"Oh! Man, I love your company too, <br>I'm also like you, now down in rue; </div><div style="margin:10px 0">Me, to live with you, you couldn't woo, <br>It's all your own making-so very true; <br>Your concrete buildings are a vainglorious show, <br>To live with animals and birds you have let go.</div><div style="margin:10px 0">You have no dwelling place for this sparrow, <br>Your mind has become very narrow; <br>You manure the fields and harvest seeds, <br>You spray pesticide and kill our insect feeds.</div><div style="margin:10px 0">Where have we to build our nests? <br>Where have we to have our rests? <br>Where are we to lay our eggs? <br>How are we to raise our chicks? </div><div style="margin:10px 0">You're all enamoured of the cell phone, <br>You've built towers in every zone; <br>You're perhaps unaware of the microwaves<br>That ripple through and on our enclaves..</div><div style="margin:10px 0">In this inhospitable atmosphere, <br>How are we to live with you here? <br>Oh! Man! Do ponder over our survival, <br>Does it not behoove you for our revival? "</div><div style="margin:10px 0">Sorry! My dear sparrow-so very sorry, <br>We ne'er reflected over your woes-don't worry; <br>Thanks for enlightening us of your story, <br>We shall, sure, make amends promptly.</div><div style="margin:10px 0">Just for you, we've ear-marked a special day, <br>It'll be celebrated across the Globe to pave a way; <br>From the year 2010 it'll be 20th of March every year, <br>Public awareness will certainly raise you, my dear.</div><div style="margin:10px 0">We'll start House Sparrow habitat conservation, <br>And put up nest-boxes for your propagation; <br>We'll provide water and food regularly, <br>And switch back to organic farming presently.</div><div style="margin:10px 0">We'll make you secure from the canines, <br>We'll let you be shielded from the felines; <br>You'll be safe from the human foot-falls, <br>And soon see yourself hopping with your pals.</div><div style="margin:10px 0">I'm sure your population will thus increase, <br>And your animosity with us will cease; <br>Our progeny shall ever admire you as we did, <br>And we shall remain with you as you bid.</div><div style="margin:10px 0"><br /></a><br />poem by <a href="http://en.citatepedia.ro/by.php?a=Chandra+Thiagarajan">Chandra Thiagarajan</a><div class=q> <img src="https://www.citatepedia.ro/g/32share.png" style="float:left" alt="Share"> <script type="text/javascript" src="//s7.addthis.com/js/300/addthis_widget.js#pubid=citatepedia" async="async"></script><div style="display:inline-block" class="addthis_sharing_toolbox" data-url="http://en.citatepedia.ro/comments.php?id=354365" data-title="Vanishing Sparrow de Chandra Thiagarajan" data-description="VANISHING SPARROW Oh!
