THE Old Bob-white and Chipbird; The Flicker, and Chewink, And little hopty-skip bird Along the river-brink. The Blackbird, and Snowbird, The Chicken-hawk, and Crane; The glossy old black Crow-bird, And Buzzard down the lane. The Yellowbird, and Redbird, The Tomtit, and the Cat; The Thrush, and that Red@3head@1-bird The rest's all pickin' at! The Jay-bird, and the Bluebird, The Sapsuck, and the Wren -- The Cockadoodle-doo-bird, And our old Settin'-hen! | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...COUNTING THE BEATS by ROBERT RANKE GRAVES EPITAPH ON THOMAS CLERE, SURREY'S FAITHFUL FRIEND AND FOLLOWER by HENRY HOWARD AMOR MUNDI by CHRISTINA GEORGINA ROSSETTI WHERE YOUR FEET GO by JOSEPH AUSLANDER BEING RETIRED, COMPLAINS AGAINST THE COURT by PHILIP AYRES INHERITANCE by EDMUND CHARLES BLUNDEN CONTENTED MIND by JANE (HUGHES) BRERETON |
