The bird in charge of my yard
For the Birds
:
The President

He prances around my yard
as if he owns the world
in charge of trees, insects
squirrels and chipmunks
the president demands
respect and attention
a robin full of energy
I watch him manage
my outside home
all is quiet as
doves peck seed
he nods in agreement
feasting and then back
to observing his domain
daffodils bow towards
this appointed leader
he further ambles towards
a meal of worms
I take comfort in
this bird of song
who reigns in the
natural world

Author Notes
I have a robin that walks around my yard as if he is the owner of the property.He deserves a poem.
