First Line: A cerulean flash! Your sure course you take
Last Line: Earth-children are awed by the joy in your soul!
Subject(s): Birds; Bluebirds
A cerulean flash! Your sure course you take,
Bluebird in blue skies above a blue lake,
To a pine-sheltered nest, where spring hills agree
With blue-tinted eggs. Your prosperity
Is measured by vastness and sun-golden skies;
By the nest, where you practice soft, bird lullabies;
By your lady-love, waiting -- and thrilled with your song,
A psalm sweet as David's, as pure and as strong,
But the words are a chant only feathered folk know --
Yet their happiness colors the breezes' swift flow.
O! friendly blue sky pilot poets extol,
Earth-children are awed by the joy in your soul!
