Caged Bird Doll
I Know Why the Cage Bird Sing, a book by author and poet Dr. Maya Angelou is one of my favorite authors. The title comes from an African-American poet Paul Laurence Dunbar's poem Sympathy. I first read her book in middle school then again during my college years. We are all created with gifts, talents, and purpose. Sometimes we find ourselves in a cage circumstance, be it fear, bad decisions, or doubt. Don't lose your song. I can often be found humming during the day. It is my private praise service with God. It encourages me and calms my spirit, and like that caged bird, I am ready to take flight.
I know why the caged bird sings, ah me,
when his wing is bruised and his bosom sore,
when he beat his bars and would be free;
It is not a carol of joy or glee,
But a plea, that upward to Heaven he flings-
I know why the cage bird sings
Material: Knit fabric, synthetic hair, bird cag, armature wire, cotton fabric, trim, ribbon, beaded trim, and gold beads.
