Darlene De Beaulieu Poet Free verse

At the Break of Dawn

The squirrels are busy
     They are searching now
      Looking everywhere
      Searching high and low
      For the needed food
      To keep the food stored
      During the winter months

      Swans that are in parks
      Now have a winter home
      They will be cared for
       Although the winter
       Geese are flying now
       Going somewhere warm
        Robins flies south to

        The darkness comes early
         Daylight leaves beforehand
         Two birds are resting
         They are so cozy
          Awaken from sleep
          To greet another day
          At the break of dawn
