Bluebird and the crafty coyote--optimism in mistake

   
   "Bluebird and the crafty coyote--optimism in mistake"
   
Wishing with mud-colored feathers, the sad bird desires to shimmer Dodger Blue,
Diving into a sparkly lake to infuse the darker than azure hue;
Hence, because of belief and will; plus, a crazy dream
The bird morphs blue with elegant gleam.
The coyote sees--he too wishes to glow with the shine of blue,
And so repeats the birds steps and his fur is made the shame shade and hue,
Yet now he becomes proud of his cool mane, forging a mistake--
A lesson in hubris does revenge with natural paint,
Returning back to his stealthy camouflaged self, with a load of humility;
However, crafty as ever with cerebral luminosity.
