Blackbird singing in the dead of night
Take these broken wings and learn to fly
All your life
You were only waiting for this moment to arise
Blackbird singing in the dead of night
Take these sunken eyes and learn to see
All your life
You were only waiting for this moment to be free🎶

Sasha‘s lost her parents and her brother with nowhere to turn. But when she learns the art of verse she is able to free herself from grief

Breathtaking and heartwarming story of Sasha and how her discovery of poetry-writing transforms her life. An unexpected treasure I stumbled upon while perusing Libby.
