Funerals are already steeped in emotion, but every now and then, something happens that leaves everyone breathless. At one quiet ceremony, a black crow descended gently onto a young girl’s coffin — and in that instant, everything changed.
To many present, the bird wasn’t just a visitor. In folklore, crows are often seen as symbols of change, passage, and unseen realms. Some mourners believed the crow carried her spirit upward. Others felt it was a message from beyond, a mysterious bridge between the living and the departed.
The bird didn’t flinch. It stood calmly, almost reverently, as if acknowledging the sorrow in the air. It didn’t feel like an interruption — it felt like part of the farewell.
When it finally spread its wings and soared away, it left behind more than a memory. It left questions, wonder, and a stillness that felt sacred. Was it just a bird? Or was it something more — a final sign, a farewell, a reminder that the unseen might be closer than we think?
