Blue Bird House
A hammer is used to drive a nail
And build a blue bird box
With its opening the perfect size
That birds will use it lots
The little house is made of pine
With straw the blue birds place
It is a space for the birds inside
And where their eggs are laid
The roof is at the proper angle
And keeps the birds there dry
With the water running off
While all is wet outside
The house is placed on a post
And is secure and strong
It’s the perfect height for a nest
Where a family soon belongs
The nest box is checked and closely examined
Each season it is there
With no wood weak or rotted
Or damaged anywhere
Small nails and glue are sometimes used
To keep the box all snug
It is a wonderful thing one can do
And keeps thoughts on things above
