Feather and Arrow

Across the whisper

Of a name in tears

_who?_

A promise

Got caught

In a net

_why?_

               A boy fell from the nest

               And a sparrow became a man

               _when?_

               Neither could fly

               In the air

               But the wind

               Took them home

               _where?_

I called the name

And it called me back

_how?_
