My Blue Mountain Bird

I saw my blue bird a sittin’ up in a tree

Atop the mountain area of a fave place

Not sure if he knew he’s been painted

In a self-portrait of him and my face

Such a lil guy, flying to and fro tree tops

Ne’er saw one like him in all my livin’

More like him swoosh by as he stops

Just taking a breather or two is a givin’

What you see across the boulder there?

Perhaps another location to build a home

Or just takin’ the scenery as I am here

Watching the elk ‘n buffalo eat and roam

What a perty song you be a belting out!

A melodious tune that sprinkles the air

So sweet soundings of love and devout

As shiny sun drops plink on the water
