The robin is the one
That interrupts
the morn
With hurried, few, express reports
When March is scarcely on.
The robin is the one
That overflows
the noon
With her cherubic quantity,
An April but begun.
The robin is the one
That, speechless from her nest,
Submits
that home and certainty
And sanctity are best.
