Stephen Crane - Three little birds in a row

Three little birds in a row
Sat musing.
A man passed near that place.
Then did the little birds nudge each other.

They said, "He thinks he can sing."
They threw back their heads to laugh.
With quaint countenances
They regarded him.
They were very curious,
Those three little birds in a row.

I really like this poem not because of the way it is layed out but of the message and immage it gives out. I have seen a lot of people sitting in arow talking and then when somebody walks by I do see and hear them being judgemental. I really think this poem is sensitie and quite a few people will relate to it.
