I saw a bluebird today.Never having seen a bluebird I didn’t ask him to sing or flynor do I speak to the urbanitecrow or sparrow for their songs add no tunesto my flight.The rest is just the glimpse of a notenow anchored now afloatperching packs on the crest and troughthat relays the coughof steel wheels on steel tracks.
