Sparrow

I try today, to open my heart
A little wider

See those that I've been missing, like
The man on the corner

The homeless man
Societies cast away

A witness to the normalizing
Of inequalities hard face

The one whose found a way to
Survive in
Survive in
The glass & rubble
Survive in
These growing troubles

I try today, To open my eyes
A little wider

See those that I've been missing, like
The woman on the corner

The painted woman with eyes of a sparrow
Casting protection over us all

Or these words etched into city walls
Lead in to Verse
A poem to keep us
Alive and involved

Keep us
Alive and involved

Keep us
Feeling something at all

So we take a moment just to see
The beauty in the side streets

All that's living whether we see
Between the cracks in concrete

Oh a love, between
The nature inside
And the nature that's become

The Wild
The Wild & ragged

Streets

I try today just to open my heart
A little wider

I try today just to open my heart
A little wider
