The Catbird Poem by Ida M. B. Kerns
The speaker greets a returning catbird and refrains from judging its song harshly. The poem contrasts human bias for perfection with nature’s imperfect music and urges acceptance of the good within the flawed. The bird’s lilac setting and the inverted blue sky frame a meditation on harmony and discernment.
