Upon a foreign branch hearing a foreign tune.

A foreign bird sitting closely on a foreign branch.

Single bird sits perched upon a single branch.

Singing a single tune touched upon a single heart.

Peace, Love.

Sharing space upon a single space atop this single branch.

Familiar space familiar song.

Singing solo others sharing in song.
