For Them Too

PEARL STRACHAN HURD

He said not one sparrow should fall to the ground
"Without your Father." He did not say
The nightingale alone.
His words must have had the queerest sound
To those who heard him, who stood around.

He spoke of protection for even those
Which had no color, which had no song,
Poorest, ugliest little throng,
Two for a farthing, the story goes,
Among the ones the Father chose.
