Lorna

Indecisive House Wrens

Your little feathers all aflutter

You bring your wife you chirp and mutter

You love the wreath that’s on my door

To set up house there you’d adore

 

While that won’t do as clearly seen

By the mess you make with mossy greens

I’ve hung a house for you nearby

A red one just for you to try

 

I’m waiting now to see if you

Are smart enough to move into

Through curtained windows watch you both

Contemplating this new birdy house

 

But so far you are nowhere near

To setting up a family where

We’ll both be happy with the spot

Where you will raise your little tots
