The Robin And The Snowman!

The robin on the tree branch saw The children in the snow, To see a sight none could ignore, He watched their snowman grow... Two arms, two legs, two ears, two eyes, One mouth, one nose, one scarf, The robin smiled with some surprise And then began to laugh! And when they turned to go inside, He landed on its head, The children's mouths dropped open wide, So they stood still instead... The robin twisted left and right, Like Elvis in his prime, The children giggled with delight At something so sublime... And with their smartphone cameras there, The videos were made, For sites like YouTube, where folks share The funny stuff that's played... And someone added music, too, You know how people are, And yet, in truth, I'm telling you, That robin's now a star! Denis Martindale November 2016.
