Mr. Bluebird

Mr. Bluebird

Dear Mr. Bluebird why do you sing?

Oh, you see, because of everything!
For the sun, the flowers, and even the trees
I’m quite happy with all that I see!

Oh Mr. Bluebird, what a joy!
You’re so happy, oh boy oh boy!
Tell me your secret, please, real quick!

Doesn’t matter if clouds are thin or thick
Look for the good, no matter the case!
Always keep a smile on your face
And maybe a song in your heart!
Now I must go, for I’ve done my part!

But oh Mr. Bluebird, please tell me why!
Real quick now, before we say goodbye!

Real quick then, for I really must go!
We should not be weighted down so
By mean people and sorrow and fear
We must make the most of our time here
For we will all leave one day
And now we must part ways!

Farewell and thank you Mr. Bluebird!
For your time and wise words
I wish you could stay and talk some more!

Same here, but I must go before
Winter sets in and it gets real cold
Now’s the best time when it’s all gold
So farewell, farewell, till winter’s end
When I return with all my friends!
