The Early Bird--By Stacy Savage--United States

The Early Bird

When Mr. Robin
Sings off key
With his song
So merrily,
Before the sun
Peeks in the sky
And sparrows rest
In trees nearby,
My sleep is paused
Because of him,
But that’s okay,
I find a grin,
For his ramblings
Bring me cheer,
When he reveals
That spring is here!
