Black bird

Image hosted by Photobucket.com
This sure looks like a black bird to me. Don't you think so? Pilitin ba namang gawing ibon ang aso. Have always been fascinated by the Beatles' song Black Bird. Since I don't have a picture of a black bird, then I suppose John Lennon and Paul McCartney wouldn't mind a black dog instead. My favorite version of Black Bird is Sarah McLachlan's, found in the "I am Sam" soundtrack.

By the way, in fairness to the dog in the picture, he was a pretty friendly fellow. Here he was playfully chasing after little fish. Ganda ng pose niya diba. His owner is an American who looked like Walter Matthau - the guy who played Mr. Wilson in the "Dennis the Menace" movie.

Black bird singin' 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

Black bird singin' 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

Black bird fly
Black bird fly
Into the light of the dark black night
