Winter Birds

I love feeding the birds, especially in the winter.  I have a tree outside of my kitchen window that is filled with at least a hundred birds, if not more waiting for their turn at the feeder.  Lucy loves to watch the birds and will repeat "bird, bird, bird" over and over.


I heard a bird sing
In the dark of December
A magical thing
And sweet to remember:
"We are nearer to Spring
Than we were in September,"
I heard a bird sing
In the dark of December.
