Robin

by
Paul Curtis


Crimson breasted
Perching on a gate
Robin red breast
Looking for a mate
A hardy suitor
Courting and wooing
Proudly displaying
In ritual pursuing
Trying to impress
To attract a wife
So in the spring
There�ll be new life
And for his efforts
Amidst winter hard
He gets to appear
On a Christmas card
