Robins And Magnolias

Alone on a Saturday morning I was drinking my coffee As I stood facing the window I stared at the maple tree with only its buds And saw the robins flying in between the branches But, in the corner of my eye, I noticed the first sign Of the magnolias They were ready to burst out of their pods Blooming with a joyful colour of pink I was overjoyed in the bounty of flowers Then, I noticed a squirrel taking a piece of a magnolia And with an angry look I gave, it ran away But it was a sign of what will be... Another beautiful spring
