Twinkle Eyes
My Friend
Do you know, or have you heard
I have a feathered friend… a bird
He’s a rather tatty rumpled fellow
A Blackbird with a beak bright yellow!
His visits to my kitchen window
Are often days apart
I miss him
And then keep a lookout
His arrival warms my heart
Last night he tapped up just at eight
“My gosh!” I told him “you are late!”
He cocked his head and winked his eye
Replying “I’m here… now pass some pie!”
I love this tiny living spirit
His presence gives such pleasure
This soul who sings and soars his wings
Is a part of life’s great treasure
