Canaries
sang do-wop
atop soap-boxes
foxes
behind bars
strummed strings
tulips
blushed red
like roses

I just love the background on this poem. It's so pretty and calming.
I also liked how you intregrated animals in subtle ways but my favorite was the part about the tulip blushing red as the rose. That's clever and cute at the same time. You did a good job on this.
