Ravens are one way of seeing blackbirds

    Newer Older

    For the poet, Wallace Stevens, inspired by his piece, Thirteen Ways of Looking at a Blackbird:

    II
    I was of three minds,
    Like a tree
    In which there are three blackbirds.

      Wow! Don't you love it when, after seeing someone's comment on an image you particularly like, you follow the path to their own photostream and find a new treasure of wonderful images? I just had that happen! :)

      Great drawings. I love blackbirds. I raised one that had fallen out of his nest when I was child. I would like to invite you to join the new Imagine Literature Pool and to post this picture in the Imagine Literature Pool.
