The Robin In the Tree

“There was a Robin in a tree who spoke to me one day Where are you going he asked and what will you see Just a walk in the park I replied, just my dog and me The Robin asked a beautiful day do you not agree? Yes I said, but there are clouds drawing near do you not see? The Robin tilted his head and looked to the sky I see the clouds he said, but I think the rain will pass us by Thank you friend Robin I said with a smile Would you like to come with us and chat for a while? No said the Robin, I must be off But please come by again when next you take a walk As the Robin flew away my dog looked at me and said If he ever lands on the ground I will chase him all around But why said I, he has but to fly Smiling my dog shook his head and said why ask why?” Jon J.
