RED BIRD
THE OTHER DAY, I HAD A SURPRIZE VISIT,
A CARDNAL CAME TO OUR TREE.
I SAT THERE VERY QUIET
SO HE WOULDN'T BE STARTLED BY ME.
I WATCHED HIM LOOK AROUND
AS ALL THE OTHER BIRDS ATE
HE LOOKED AS IF HE DIDN'TKNOW
IF HE SHOULD GO OR WAIT
JUST THEN , HIS MATE FLEW TO HIM
A VERY HANDSOME PAIR
BUT JUST AS I FELT SO HAPPY
THEY BOTH FLEW AWAY FROM THERE.
THEY'VE BOTH COME BACK TO VISIT,
TWO OR THREE TIMES SINCE THEN.
I WONDER WHERE THEY HAVE A NEST
OR IF I WILL EVER SEE THEM AGAIN.
