Girl beside a tree

~once upon a time here sat a child
her hair was dirty but her glance so mild
every day she looked up in the sky
thinking, some day up there I'll fly
sparrows sang all day long upon the twigs
but as the time went by they sounded more like pigs
the girl got terrified
what had been so glorified
now was turning into a sad joke
that one day, she met a bloke
it was the last day she dreamt of flying
she'd grown up, soon she would be dying~
