Bluebird Lady

She's a cllector of treasures
                                     which by its glitter she measures
                                     but they soon give her no pleasures.

                                She has no discern 
                                for what other have earned
                                she takes without concern.

                                      Is she searching each day
                                      for what got away
                                      are the skies she flies all grey.

                                She has no devotions
                                she lives by compulsions
                                it's a life without emotions.
