Blackbirds at Christmas
Blackbirds have come back at Christmas
They always do I have often wondered why,
Do you know why ?
In September crabs are heavy with fruit and
caterpillars eat fading leaves of Solomon's Seal
rivaling mother's lace and paper doilies ,
angel cakes cooked on Fridays ,standing
on plates of molded glass.
There must be a reason,every thing has reason
should we listen look or learn,maybe that's what
blackbirds have done, when they return at Christmas.
