The Robin Girl

My great friend
and I - at the
Museum in the city -
saw
a tiny three year
old girl -
whistling -
with rosy cheeks,
perfectly
un-self-conscious,
a robust little robin
in human form.

We delighted
in her -
to say
the least.

A robust little robin in human form.

I can see her Monika. What a bewitching description of a brief moment.

Both of you would have fallen in love with her instantly. I'd say your picture of her is accurate, Heather.

What a perfect little word picture - I can see this enchanting child as if she were standing in front of me.
