feet of a blackbird -
on the street sign rests even
when she does not sing

  3. Yes, I too was curious and wonder whether you saw the illustration and the poem wrote itself as you looked at it!

  12. Those feet on the sign will linger in mind today. They feel more watchful than not and that seems like a good balance to a song. :)

  15. I like the idea that a blackbird leaves footprints on a street sign, meaning she's present even when you can't hear her! There must be blackbird footprints all over our trees!
