Miller and the Aspen trees
Greetings,

Since I have always been one to like a good puzzle and/or riddle, the note from Scooter to Judith always intruiged me. I felt certain there was a message contained within. At work today I heard this song, so I came home and found the lyrics. While it most likely is not in the least related, I did immediatly think of the note.


White Bird
by It's A Beautiful Day

White bird
In a golden cage
On a winter's day
In the rain
White bird
In a golden cage
Alone

The leaves blow
Cross the long black road
To the darkened skies
In its rage
But the white bird
Just sits in her cage
Alone.

White bird must fly
Or she will die

White bird
Dreams of the aspen trees
With their dying leaves
Turning gold
But the white bird
Just sits in her cage

Growing old.

White bird must fly
Or she will die
White bird must fly
Or she will die

The sunsets come
The sunsets go
The clouds pile high
The air moves slow
And the young bird's eyes
Do always know
She must fly
She must fly
She must fly

White bird
In a golden cage
On a winter's day
In the rain
White bird
In a golden cage
Alone?

White bird must fly
Or she will die
White bird must fly
Or she will die
White bird must fly
Or she will die?
White bird must fly?

2. Hey - I sold a strobe light
to It's a Beautiful Day - back in the day.

Really hope this is not related because Miller would be a disgrace to all birds.
