During my assignment this morning, I photographed a woman in her home in Hingham, Massachusetts. As I composed the image, she sat in her chair and recited this poem. I must share it. It's by Oliver Herford.
I Heard a Bird Sing
I heard a bird sing
In the dark of December.
A magical thing
And sweet to remember.
'We are nearer to Spring
Than we were in September,"
I heard a bird sing
In the dark of December.
Just lovely.
