Description The Caged Bird.

Inspired by Maya Angelou s beautiful poem:



I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings.


his wings are clipped and his feet are tied
so he opens his throat to sing.

The caged bird sings with a fearful trill
of the things unknown but longed for still
and is tune is heard on the distant hill
for the caged bird sings of freedom

- Maya Angelou

(This isn't the whole poem, only a part of it.)

This picture is very beautiful! I was wondering, if I could use it as a part of a online book cover for I story I've written on a site called wattpad. I would only be using a small portion of the picture for the cover, and I'll give you full credit of course! Think about it and get back to me ASAP if possible! DDD

You don't have to read the story (it's kinda dark) but I worked pretty hard on the cover and your illustration makes it so much better ^__^ Thank you so much!!
