"Green finch and linnet bird nightingale blackbird. how is it you sing? how can you jubilate sitting in cages? never taking wing..." Anthony stared at the beauty singing in her window. Joanna Turpin was beautiful with fairytale locks and deep dark eyes, her voice ringing like a bell in the air.

never looks outside 

always stares and stays beside

the birds who sing to her as she thinks she ought

the birds who share his little bird's thoughts"  Little Bird. She was fragile and looked lighter than a feather. Her voice made it suit her. A little bird... with a breakable cage.
