The Robin

He sits there tweeting merrily Happy to be alive Had ate all the seeds he needs Probably too heavy to fly So he sits, looking over the view At what flowers are left to peruse Cos jack frost has been about And they have all got the wilting blues. He fluffs out his chest Cos someone points the lens He wants to look his best When they take a pic of him He huffs and he puffs So much so He fell off his perch Into the snow A picture was taken He wasn't looking his best Rather bedraggled  in a heap With a flower across his chest.

Got a chuckle..At first it was the bird, then I saw a human with their chest held out with pride and then go tumbling in the snow...Really enjoyed..Thanks for stopping by my blog..I will let Jack know the names of the new ones that have been added to the blog..Sara

This was a fun poem to read. It is both happy and sad at the same time.
