My Big Sister
The birds of winter how do you keep your fire so hot?
We know you have a secret stash and that is smart
Somehow you have a way that gets you through
20 below this morning but those sprites are not blue
These little Chickadees fires’ keep them warm all night
The world seems so cold to us but not for this sprite
He attacks each sunflower seed with a little punch
Every chickadee knows it takes a lot to get a lunch.
The howling winds try to shake him from tree to tree
It will take more than any mere wind to make him flee
There is a special lady who makes sure to stoke his fire.
Feeding them love and sunflower seed she will never tire
From all us birds and the animals to that love her too
HAVE A HAPPY BIRTHDAY AND WE ALL LOVE
