A smart Magpie
In navy blue, black and white
with a fetching bow tie
which is rather tight.
Has spotted a red Robin
Shivering in a thin jacket.
His little feet throbbing
perched on a metal bracket.
His feathers nothing but fluff
The Magpie thinks ahead
and decides enough is enough
He wants to help this bird get fed.
He gets to know the bird on talking terms
and thus presents a shiny silver tray
laden with rich tasty meal worms
a feast for a hungry Robin - a bird's buffet.
