Mr. Bluebird's On My Shoulder




Whether it's a Mr. Bluebird's on my shoulder

kind of day for you or not--

some days it hasn't been for me or you

or for ones we care about--

I like knowing that they're there somewhere,

busy making a home and raising babies.




There's always something pretty to look at in this wild patch

I asked RH to leave when he mows the lawn.

Right now it's a large wild pink rose in bloom

in the hedge that gives us road privacy along part of

the long wedge-shaped frontage.

Let's don't cultivate everything, okay?

Let's leave some room for the wild things

to flourish and be free.


I need that view from my windows too.

Almost as much as I need this one.




But never as much, BreeBree, never.
