Bluebirds

We were given bluebirds. Have you

thought about that? Something wanted

us to find some kind of happiness

flitting about in our being. Imagine

the foresight! Humans with our

befuddling ache for something other

than the miracles all around us.

Bluebirds.

What can you do with a bluebird

other than say, “Oh! This day is so

much better now.” That wasn’t

a question, actually. Because it’s

simply true. True like the branch on

which the bluebird perches, or the fence

post beside the old orchard with tart

heirloom apples.

What if a bluebird perched on your

heart? Yes, imagine that! Imagine

what could become of this

unhappy miracled world.
