Maya Angelou’s The Caged Bird is one of my favourite poems and it immediately came to mind when I saw the image.
The caged bird sings with a fearful trill of things unknown but longed for still and his tune is heard on the distant hill for the caged bird sings of freedom. - Maya Angelou
Sunday Sentence – One image. One sentence. Every Sunday.
Such a heartbreaking image comes to mind upon reading the poem! 🙁
But I also feel, aren’t we all sometimes like that bird, held in different cages, of fears, of anxieties, of people’s expectations…? The list is endless.
Oh yes, and that’s why we need to set ourselves and others free, don’t we?
