To The First Robin
by Louisa May Alcott, age 8
(1840)

Welcome, welcome, little stranger,
Fear no harm, and fear no danger;
We are glad to see you here,
For you sing "Sweet Spring is near."

Now the white snow melts away;
Now the flowers blossom gay:
Come dear bird and build your nest,
For we love our robin best.

Good afternoon, Dita!!
Thank you for the wonderful robin graphic and
the "First Robin" poem by Louisa May Alcott.

They are both wonderful and remind us that spring is less than a month away.
(Well .... in California anyway. : )
