Eating Cake

Each morning on my window sill

A little robin sits.

He stays around for a while,

Then away he flits.

Is it me he comes to see,

(Perhaps he likes my company ?)

Or is it the piece of cake I leave,

That he pecks at gleefully.

He makes me smile, it cheers me so

To watch him eat his fill.

To see him happily eating cake,

Dining, on my window sill.

Dan Cwiak Date: 8/15/2017 5:20:00 AM Nature can surely test our senses, but we have to have some input in getting there. I did the same thing with peanuts for the Jays, squirrels, and chipmunks when I had the opportunity. Always fun to watch and your poem reminds me of those days. Nicely done and thanks for the memories. Login to Reply Gary Smith Date: 8/15/2017 5:36:00 AM Thank you Dan :)
