THE STARLING FACTOR!
–
Time in this year flies,
Returning birds fill the skies…
Starling, red wing,
Both have heard sing,
Robins were a pleasant surprise!
–
Brown grass turning green,
Small flocks of starlings I’ve seen…
Foraging for
A few insects more,
Larvae are coming out clean!

BIRDIE PERCHES
–
Robins on a chain-link fence,
Bothered they flew off hence…
Fat feathered and firm
Looking for the worm
Tto feed young ladies and gents.
–Jonathan Caswell
TOYING WITH TANKA
Been taken as a fool
A two-hundred dollar school,
Burning with laughter
Their laughter–smiling at me
Smilingly to the bank vault!
–J.E.C.
–
Successful robins
Pulling worms out at their will
Feeding generation
Filling nests of happy broods
Serenading the damp woods!
–J.E.C.
