listen, listen, she's calling to you

So sang the eternally lovely Julie Andrews.


This song made me sad whenever I watched "Mary Poppins" as a child. I thought it was a downer, and I didn't like the old lady sitting there, covered with birds. It was scary.

I still don't want to be covered with birds, but I now appreciate what a beautiful song this is.

Although you can't see it
You know they are smiling
Each time someone shows that he cares

Indeed.
