Robin Redbreast
A winter's guest, a welcome sight,
He visits in the garden's blight.
A ruby chest and pleasant call,
He cheers our spirits, one and all.
A leafy knoll or watering can,
A cosy nook or cooking pan,
He builds his nest to hold and hide,
Then settles comfortably inside.
He visits in the garden's blight.
A ruby chest and pleasant call,
He cheers our spirits, one and all.
A leafy knoll or watering can,
A cosy nook or cooking pan,
He builds his nest to hold and hide,
Then settles comfortably inside.
