The Jay
January 6, 2014
The blue jay
Winked at me
As it hopped happily
Across the worn forest trail
I beheld it’s beauty;
Its dusk feathers
Bright in the spots of sunlight
Then it started to sing.
So wonderful and sweet
I realized it sang
The true song of my soul.
I smiled.
It was a happy song.
It was free.
That day a blue jay taught me
To sing
