The loving parents soon birdlings bold to greet; And busily employed their timeIn finding food to eat. Day after day they fed the young,And gave each one his share; When came a pair of friends to aidThem in their loving care. Two Titmice trim and light of heart,Soon made themselves at home In the crown of the old apple tree,Nor from it far did roam. But filled with song and industry.

And fed the young till they were childless feathered pair; Though robbed of children of their own,The Flickers joys must share. M. F.
