“Blue skies smiling at me,
Nothing but blue skies do I see.
Blue birds singing a song,
Nothing but blue birds all day long.” —Irvin Berlin

Note: The story behind this picture (2017) was “Blue skies” as in depressed; haggard from a stressful day. I stepped outside and heard and saw this Bird singing it’s heart out as it sat on the telephone wire. It was dusk. My spirit smiled. I’ve reframed It and added more color for this composition. The original is a bit pixilated.
