Robin Red-Breast Alights

robin red-breast alights
winter welcomes that odd prancing
pale sun nods; robin twitches, smiles
hungry beak pecks away
worm wonders why, what the rush is

Your worms are smarter than the nightcrawlers we have in Kansas then.

OK. I'm going to try to wrap my arms around your comment, utilizing logic: Let's see: a.) Not all worms are nightcrawlers. b.) But all nightcrawlers are worms. Therefore, c.) Not all worms crawl at night! How's that for brilliant deductive reasoning?! (Ahem, no answer necessary! LOL). :) gw

The poor hapless clueless worm! Nice write Gershon!

Ha, ha -- defenseless (worms) too; they need a good, tough Defense Attorney, methinks. LOL. Thanks for the viewpoint, P.S! Best wishes, Gershon
