The Robin Family


I'm waiting for the Robins, 
the ones I spied last year,
a male and a female
to tell me spring is here.
I watched him gather grasses,
as he built their lovely nest
and was rewarded with three fledgelings,
tucked neath her Robin breast.

      Thank you Bill, sometimes a few words is all that's needed. <3

      I wrote this for Writing My Way Home. Another website that users share for 'Small Stones'. A small stone is anything you can visualize around you on any given day. It's all about taking the time to smell the roses, you could say.
