Read the following:

At outdoor cafés that looked like gardens she heard drums played by men

but when she closed her eyes

she could also hear

her own imaginary

music.

When she walked under wind-wavy palm trees

in a flower-bright park

she heard the whir of parrot wings

the clack of woodpecker beaks

the dancing tap

of her own footsteps

and the comforting pat of her own heartbeat.

• This refers to how she heard music everywhere she went.

• This refers to her longing to escape Cuba.

• This refers to her love for nature.

• This refers to her ability to shut the world out of her mind.
