So you see the robins year-round too, Jack! I bet in the northern counties of England, other critters emerge in winter. I love the image of the robin following the gardener and finding his treat -- the worm. Best wishes in Deb's contest with this great write. I hope she realizes that you are on the Southwest coast of England. Excellent haiku! Love, Carolyn

Very clever write Jack! The robin gets the worm, yay(we have tons of robins here all summer long)! Isn't it funny how they hop? You have written an outstanding work!! Awesome going!!
