Gary Smith Poet Rhyme

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.

Kevin Shaw August 31, 2017 at 5:50 AM A wonderful, joyful little poem. But for sure the Robin visits you for food, he is not the sweet bird you imagine. I love your verse, regards, Kevin Gary Smith August 31, 2017 at 8:36 AM Thank you Kevin :)

Dan Cwiak August 15, 2017 at 5:20 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. Gary Smith August 15, 2017 at 5:36 AM Thank you Dan :)
