WINTER BIRD BY FIONA CUMMINGS


WINTER BIRD

BY FIONA CUMMINGS

A little red robin

Came to see what was for tea

He sat on the fence

And said please feed me

I gave him some bread

   Watching him anxiously

 listening for any sound

From the fence to the tree

And then to the ground

So timid he was

Just  bopping around

Little red birdie

Don’t be afraid of me

Let me fill your dish

I will grant you your wish

There is plenty here for you

Berries of reds, black and blue

Here are some seeds

I have  food for all your needs

Come little winter robin

Come to my garden

If I scare you

I beg your pardon

I don’t want to hurt you

Pretty little thing

All I ask in return

Is for me to hear you sing
