When A Bluejay Dies by Lucy, age 9

Lucy from Woolwich, Maine sent in this song, and I love how she uses the image of a bluejay to sing about life and death...a natural process we all have to deal with. My favorite line is "Bluejays die but rock alive!" It's a great line because it celebrates the bluejay and reminds us that even though we might lose someone we love, we can remember and celebrate their life. Great work, Lucy!


Post a comment for Lucy!

When a Blue jay Dies
by Lucy, age 9

When a Blue jay dies [2x]
It’s a hard thing but it is a part of nature growth
I wish I could change it but I cannot change it at all

When a Blue jay dies [2x]
It is a part of nature but I just can’t change it

They feed at the feeder all winter long. They feel like my feathery
Friends. It’s hard to loose a friend that is so graceful and blue. Blue jays, baby I LOVE THEM!

Blue jays die but rock alive. This is their life and how it
Works!!!
