Little Snowbirds

Pink-toed hopping birds,

like barefoot laughing children,

play in a snow bank.

Thanks, harry, and may the new year bring blessings to you. Winter brings amazing sights which I will continue to capture in a poem. You might also like my "Winter" poem that I wrote. Now I'll go read some of your poems.~~~~Darlene

Thank, Viv! I was thinking about birds. Do their feet get cold in the winter? And came up with this poem. Their toes may actually be orange, but heck, it's my poem! Thanks for liking it.~~~Darlene
