Roses are red
Sometimes violets are to
but my favorite blue is
pure and true
It belongs to my friend
the Eastern Bluebird.
Today I'm away but never fear
tomorrow I'll be back and that is a fact!!
I had not planned to post today but when I saw this beautiful photo of the birds I knew I had to join.

Bluebirds always make me smile. I haven't seen any here but we used to have them in our backyard all the time. Hoping they come here too.
ReplyDeleteWe just loved this photo that Angel Sammy picked for Poetic Thursday - glad you wrote a poem - we love it! This photo is one of those that you have to look at twice to realize how amazing it was that all those birds came to one spot at the same time. We love bluebirds here too. Thanks for posting even though you hadn't intended to - it MAKES OUR DAY!
ReplyDeleteLove, Teddy and Mom too
I love those Eastern Bluebirds, too!
