So I'm getting this tattoo definitely...not this particular design but I want all the elements in it. The blackbird/s, the bleeding strawberry and the word imagine

A girl on yahoo answers really helped me find the meaning. Here is how I threw it together: My favorite songs by the Beatles are Imagine, Strawberry Fields, and blackbird.
The bleeding strawberry represents something so good and sweet but can also cause pain. As for the blackbird, they are known as mean birds. However, in the song Blackbird (Beatles) it represents freedom and breaking out...learning to fly with broken wings...something dark with a brighter side.
Imagine - meaning endless possibilities.
Something that is GOOD with a bad side (strawberry) and something bad with good side (blackbird). Plus I mean come on...they are amazing songs incorporated into one tattoo.
SO before I go to a tattoo artist, I want to have a few ideas in my head. The picture I have above isn't exactly what I want...I made it in photoshop so that strawberry and font is pathetic. I just posted the pic to give you an idea of the things I want in my tattoo. I also thought about the strawberry being held in the birds beak? And possibly more smaller blackbirds flying around.
Help me create some basic ideas for the image. Thank you all =)
P.S. I don't want it much larger than the size of my hand and it will possibly go on my hip, shoulder, on the side of lower back.
Ugh if you do not agree with tattoos please do not answer. My body. And it will be covered so it wont effect my career opportunities. Thank you for your concern.
