in times like these, you were my bird, my dear red bird.




----------------
my grandma used to tell me that seeing a red bird was lucky. it meant that everything would work out; it would be fine. i haven't seen one in awhile, but when i do, i remember her words. i took the picture above when her and i were sitting in the rocking chairs on the front porch two summers ago. just her and i, it was such a nice day. i miss her. i miss her a great deal.

I think it's a beautiful picture. You are a beautiful person.

I still think about that lyric often. I didn't imagine that particular red bird though.
