Question on Marie
in reply to a message by New_Chloe
How does it make you think of Blackbirds & Blackberries?

I am not sure how the blackbird/berry thing happened. I was sitting on a bus on my way home from work and thinking about Marie and how pastelly it is, when suddenly I thought of it in terms of the juxtaposition of dark and light, like a blackbird on a bare branch against a pearl-grey sky or a bowl of blackberries in cream, and the name just came alive for me.
