“…So be like I, hold your head up high
Till you find a bluebird of happiness
You will find greater peace of mind
Knowing there’s a bluebird of happiness
And when he sings to you
Though you’re deep in blue
You will see a light creep through
And so remember this, life is no abyss
Somewhere there’s a bluebird of happiness
For life is sweet, tender and complete
When you find the bluebird of happiness
You will find perfect peace of mind
Knowing there’s a bluebird of happiness
Two hearts beat as one
Beneath a new found sun
We are in a world that’s just begun
And you must sing his song, as you go along
When you find the bluebird of happiness …”
~ “Bluebird of Happiness”

A sweet and beautiful male Eastern Bluebird seemingly poses while perched above the snow on a winter afternoon in early February at Trexler Memorial Park, Allentown, Pennsylvania.
