Original Poetry By Joan Cripps

Chickadee
Grey coat and black cap Dressed for all weather Snow, rain or shine. Singing your song, As
you fly along.

Moose Bird
You are a friendly chap With your brown grey coat and cap. You walk by my side,
As I sit in my chair. Go about your business As if I'm not there. Friendly did I say You
are your own self You have your own way.

Porcupine
You waddle across my lawn today. I hope you are not here to stay. You destroy all the trees,
As you eat and play.
