Notes About The Poem

Robin Redbreast

A darling with his breast of red,
Spring's symbol, Robin Redbreast, is,
who likes to wake the sleepyhead!
An appetite for worms is his!
Leave fruits for him; he'll be well-fed!

Cheerily cheer up cheerily
is what this sweet bird seems to sing.
Most welcoming at dawn is he!
If first to see him in the spring,
a lucky person you shall be!

Nice poem about a robin! I love birds! The woman I dated for four and a half years did not like birds. That is not the only reason we broke up. I am looking for a true soul mate! Sex mags have good articles in them at times. I had a Catholic friend who warned against porno. I think you can overdo it with the stuff. Looking is not as good as touching. And some feminists are against porn. I will get issue in the mail fairly soon. Probably will enjoy it Peace & Love Matthew Anish
