Darkly Blackbird

Digital Art ~Blackbird by *AnnaVRossen

Darkly blackbird never chirped

caged for all eternity

rhythm an elusive spirit

sun shined upon her soul

she had found the secret key

to escape gloomy shadows

opened her clouded eyes

discovered her vibrant voice

unlocked her tortured heart

in sweet love notes

flew upon the resplendent skies

singing in hopeful harmony

I love this line - "sun shined upon her soul, she had found the secret key" - such an uplifting line in a poem of beauty and inspiration. Your words, the graphic you chose and the music all together are perfect. This is one of those poems that just curls up in your heart and stays there. Lovely! :) Julie

To free the soul and spirit, a mind's triumph. If only the body could follow on the song. Could be you're on to something here, ah yes...the writing is what you are onto, and most beautifully penned at that Frieda. Tom

The blackbird's sweet song is one of nature's most soothing sounds and so glad this diminutive, beautiful little bird broke free from incarceration and found its voice when the sun's rays penetrated the darkness to shine upon it!

Another eloquently composed poem sweet Lady Frieda !
