ROMEO JULIET : SHAKESPEARE

BLUEBIRD, WHAT DO YOU FEED ON? by Carl Sandburg

*BLUEBIRD, WHAT DO YOU FEED ON?*

*by Carl Sandburg* 

Bluebird, what do you feed on?

It is true you gobble up worms, you swallow bugs,

And your bill picks up corn, seed, berries.

This is only part of the answer.

Your feathers have captured a piece of smooth sky.

Your wings are burnished with lake-morning blue.

It is not a worm blue nor a bug blue nor the blue

Of corn or berry you shine with.

Bluebird, we come to you for facts, for valuable

Information, for secret reports.

Bluebird, tell us, what do you feed on?
