The sun was prying up the clouds and lighting the brick front of the hospital rose red. A thin breeze worked at sawing what leaves were left from the oak trees, stacking them neatly agains the wire cyclone fence. There were little brown birds occasionally on the fence: when a puff of leaves would hit the fence the birds would fly off with the wind. It looked at first like the leaves were hitting the fence and turning into birds and flying away.
The scene described captures the tranquil yet dynamic atmosphere outside the hospital. As the sun shines bright, illuminating the building's brickwork in a warm rose hue, the natural elements come to life. A gentle breeze stirs, causing the remaining leaves of the oak trees to flutter and gather against the cyclone fence. This imagery evokes a sense of change and the passing of time, as the leaves are slowly stripped from the trees.
The little brown birds perched on the fence add to the vividness of the moment. Their sudden flight in response to the rustling leaves creates a striking visual, suggesting a magical transformation as it seems the leaves morph into birds. This intertwining of nature illustrates both movement and freedom, reflecting themes of liberation that resonate within the broader narrative of "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest."
