Fue la abuela la que me enseñó a escuchar el canto de las aves. Sus ojos me enseñaron a contemplar esos pequeños pájaros y a observar aquello que los hacía tan especiales. Juntas escuchábamos al mirlo cantar entre los murmullos de la ciudad que se despertaba, intentado adivinar dónde se encontraba.
