Song for the Chickadee -- Guest Post

here's a song for the chickadee
my favorite bird on the deck
he's small and he's cute
in his formal black suit
in which he comes calling to peck

the cardinal is regal, the blackbird sublime
the finches are golden when in their prime
but the chickadee's faithful, handsome and plucky
those that receive him should count themselves lucky

he's here in the winter, here in the spring
yes a chickadee's truly a heart-lifting thing
