Mrs. Robin

I am looking out my window

The sky is overcast

Mrs. Robin scurries across my lawn

Oblivious to the damn forecast

They're calling for rain and thunder

But Mrs. Robin is not alarmed

Her only concern is finding worms

And protecting her babies from harm

She's happy with her simple life

Just carrying out nature's plan

We would all do well to pay attention

Good advice for our fellow man

Get back to a simpler way of life

Just be happy you're alive

Feeling the love of family and friends

It's the only way to survive

Sound like a Utopian existence?

I've been called a dreamer before

No doubt we've got to start somewhere

Before the world we know is no more
