Jon this is so very lovely and tender
and softly spoken with such utter beauty
I love every line & stanza
"the flight of thespian, singer of joy"
such a bounty to the soul to visualize
the entirity of this emotionally expressive offereing

Love's Bounty Embracing Souls

it seems to me that this yellow bird is the artist's stroke of sunshine on the canvas of blue sky that brings it alive with music and verve, Jon. The bird is the first chord of sunrise and raises both dawn and mood with it's shimmering flight. Your vibrant diction is alive with potential and the airy full-rei(g)n of fresh scopes of imagination. A harbinger of good things! :)) xx

great metaphoric presentation ... indeed the celebrated song of the yellow bird inspires the mood of the "blue hued imagination" as well its flight into the individual's perception of "ethereal heights (of) performance" ...

I want to be a yellow bird, somehow bringing healing harmonies to the wounded. Breathtaking beauty of word and soul.

Such a beautiful addition to everyday living, Jon. The colors we put into our lives dye our souls with love, the hues of nature prevalent in Yellow Bird and Sky let us soar with inspiration and the higher thought process...observance is key to living a balanced life, to look up in the sky and see flight keeps us from being grounded for too long...

Love and Friendly Skies,
Sage

Ravishing!
These sweet poetic words of yours abound in expression and power.
That yellow bird is an inspired guide, as is your poem, to the realization of inner courage, and the magnitude of that inner fight to awaken to beauty and inner significance.
Best Wishes,

The dark skies of yesterday soon give way to a brighter new day. Almost a prayer like soliloquy of goodbye to the past and hello to a brighter today.
