A Little Robin Called Buddy Poem by Shaun Cronick

A Little Robin Called Buddy

Rating: 5.0


At the museum where I work,
There's a robin that I feed.
He's a chirpy little fellow,
When I bestow him bird-seed.

One bleak morning it happened,
I foolishly forgot his food.
As he landed right beside me,
Expecting a meal to be viewed.

I'm sorry was all I could say,
But Buddy stay close and near.
The leaves covering the ground,
Have given me a great idea.

My foot scraped the leaves away,
To expose fresh soil beneath.
Revealing little grubs and worms,
I welcomed with great relief.

Hungry Buddy didn't waste time,
He began eating his morning meal.
As I scraped away a larger patch,
With a bigger breakfast to reveal.

I quietly left little Buddy to it,
Whispered him a promise on my way,
With food galore this afternoon,
For his friendship I won't betray.

Thank you good Rose Marie for your kind and more than gracious comment and this little guy is real and its not just myself who feeds him but many more caring and sharing museum colleagues I'm more than proud to call my friends and family. Thanks again and take care.

Wonderful, heart - warming poem Shaun....definitely the righy mood music for this season of good will to all. I feel the same way about my sister's dog..always seems to liven up when I'm around probably because I like to feed it. Anyhow, it's a true friendship never dies inspired five from me!
