Gary Smith Poet Rhyme

A Busy Bird

A bucket hung from my old shed

And there a robin made his bed,

I watched him carry mud and straw

And twigs he picked up from the floor,

He only stopped to peck some seed

He was a busy bird indeed,

And when he'd done he sang out loud

Perched on his bucket, looking proud.
