Review by Draconica'Mythis
Rated: ASR | (5.0)
I really loved the portrayal here. What caught my attention was the progression of how the subject evolved in maturity. The lesson that the boy learned was a valuable one that many often don't reach until much later, if they ever reached it at all. There was the conservation lesson and the discrimination lesson. The poem reminded me of how my younger brother did the same thing, I fussed and told him that he should only hunt what he planned to eat. (I was around thirteen or so at the time and he was nine. We have no older brother, so that responsibility often fell to me.) Later, he cooked and ate that little bird. I'm not sure what he learned that day, but he never shot another songbird again. Sparrows and pigeons was beautifully written, I liked the format of it and the way the words fit so effortlessly. The discrimination part of the message struck a chord with me as well. Birds are a lot like people and the voice of the subject spoke volumes on that. Sparrows, thrushes, pigeons and blackbirds aren't usually described as pretty, but they are songbirds all the same.
