WHEN SNOW LIES DEEP
l wonder if we really know
The gratitude the birds will show
For crumbs and seeds and bits of
meat,
Or anything that they can eat
When winter winds blow loud and
shrill,
And snowfakes cover field and hill.
Select tree and bore hole
About the shape of cup or bowl,
And fill it with some melted fat,
Or something that they can get at,
And note how soon the birds will come
And how their little bills will drum.
The grubs and worms are all asleeep
In winter when the snow lies deep;
And so the best that we can do
To aid the birds, and see them
through
This trying time of snow and sleet
Is to provide them food to eat.
