A Robin Came to Say Hello … I was missing you this morning But I did not need to fear As a beautiful red robin Came to tell me you were near It settled down in front of me And, as it looked me in the eye I could feel your warmth and energy Before he gently flew on by Now my heart, it feels at peace again I know you’re never far away Thank you, dearest Robin Please come again another day.
