The Mockingbird said to the Crow In many different ways Do not come here go away I don't want you to stay The Mockingbird said to the snake 'Tis my territory Stay away from my family Said gramps with head hoary The young Mockingbird after snake Flew fast and low pecking Showing him which way swiftly to go Far was he sent trekking The Mockingbirds are back singing their joyful tunes.. When I hear them I think about how tough they are..

You knew I'd like the bird, Because somewhere along writing the poem you thought of Texas. :) and I love anything that symbolizes My State. Sara, thanks for the awesome reply... Love Linda
