Always Welcome

This bright and sunny morning 
I watched a bluebird fly 
She landed on my table
I thought that I would die
She looked just like my Bluebird
I'm telling you, no lie
I wondered, should I question 
From whence she came, or why?

I asked if it was really her
As tears welled in my eyes
Tears of joy, although they were,
I didn't want to cry 
She smiled first, then winked at me 
She beak-synched out a "hi"
Then chirped a word in Spanish 
Which caused my tears to dry

She told me not to worry 
I told her I would try 
Then three more words in English but
Before I could reply 
She spread her pretty feathers 
And flew into the sky 
She said, "I have to go for now,
But this is not goodbye."
