Robin and His Friend Worm

There is a robin and a worm
Who became best of friends
They seem to have so much fun
And they hope it never ends

Robin always laughed at worm
Cause, he wiggles when they play
It's almost as if my friend worm
Is trying to get away

Robin said, it's starting to rain
And I don't want you to drown
I promise I will keep you dry
By lifting you off the ground

Robin then picked up worm
And swallowed him that day
He ate three or four more worms
And then he flew away

There's a moral to this story
That I bet you haven't heard
It's, if you are a worm
Never trust a bird

Poor little worm. Good advice for all those other worms.

Yeah that's what I thought too while I watched a Robin eat a crap load of worms. Thanks for stopping by

G'day Roger … worm needed to do a bit of research on robin but it's too late now. The moral is correct - Lindsay
