Notes About The Poem
Entry for Any Living Thing Poetry Contest Charles Messina

Robin


Emerging grass
      from snow in mass
In winter's pass

Robin arrive
      30 or more thrive
As they strive

Hopping to find
      for hidden blind
Scurrying mind

As they scatter
     prey hear patter
It's a matter

The flock spreads far
    without a spar
Friendly they are

It's rare to see
       so many be
Here not to flee
