Robin Red Hood

Just down the road
through the path in the wood
went the Widow Wyile
to visit her friend
Robin Red Hood
as she rounded the bend
by the oak
sure enough there
they stood
head to one side
listening   listening
for steps and for food
one quick flash
of their beak going down
stopped the widow
in her tracks
next thing she knew
her friend held up
fresh snacks
that the widow
politely
declined
