Clockwork Sparrows

Write a tale about a small town where every night, mechanical sparrows sing lullabies to the residents.

The balance between the organic world and the mechanical one, the eternal struggle between nature and man’s obsession with controlling its environment, are themes that can emerge from this prompt. The enchanting imagery of mechanical birds singing lullabies opens a range of possibilities. Can these seemingly artificial creations evoke the same emotions as real birds? Are the lullabies comforting or eerie?
