Never miss the chance to wink
At the bird sitting in the weeds
He may sing you a lovely tune
A melody of tweets
And don’t forget to tip your hat
At the little girl all dressed in green
Her boots, her coat, her tiny toy boat
Her laugh is contagious as can be
Genuflect, finally, for the flower
With all of her many seeds
She’s been through frost, scorch, and nearly devoured
Yet shares all she has for you and for me
