Thank you

The disgraced sparrow chirps

For knocking me down from my mother’s tree

And smiling when my wing was too broken to set me free

Thank you

The disgraced sparrow chirps

For your part in creating my worn-down wing

You showed me happiness is what I should continue to sing

Thank you

The disgraced sparrow chirps

For helping me finally see

This forest was not a place where I was meant to be

I found my home beyond the tattered nest

You plucked away in your greed

Where the sweet melodies of friendship welcomed me

And the birds told me kindness shouldn’t come with a fee

Thank you

The disgraced sparrow chirps

You may have claim yourself as blessed

But in the end, only I was given the best
