I like crows

 


I like crows 

Goodness knows

Why I think this way

It's their character I guess

I see them and they see me

They cock their heads as you see


Crows like me

Fly right down

As I open door

To see what I'll give them today

They eat all the scraps I throw out

That they like me there is no doubt

Getting older

                         


I miss my garden living in a flat

Sowing seeds in the springtime and all that

Waving to neighbots ober garden gate

Hearing a blackbird singing to his mate

Mowing th lawn, pruning trees and more

But putting out trash, that I did abhor!

Hanging washing on line was hers to do

Worst job of all was cleaning up dogs poo


Now living in apartment chores all gone

To describe it well I call it "Vive Bon"

All is shiney new no squeaking rusty gate

Just wish I still had my wife, my dear mate

Chores are sparse except th spring flower pot

No pesky insects or even flies too swat

Wear what clothes I like even rumpled shawl

For what I do others care not at all
