The North Wind and the Robin
Walter Crane
The North wind doth blow and we shall have snow,
And what will poor robin do then, poor thing?
He'll sit in a barn and keep himself warm
and hide his head under his wing, poor thing.
And what will poor robin do then, poor thing?

Magnolia my sweet, it rained all day yesterday here, and our lovely snow is gone. Drat...
What a wonderful picture of a mother sheltering her child from the wind! I just love children's poems...I can't remember what I did yesterday but I can remember dozens of the sing song children's nursery rhymes!
This beautiful post takes me back to childhood memories. What a delightful verse and illustration.
Ahhh what a sweet remembrance from childhood...it takes me back to Mrs.Ryan and my sixth grade classroom which was a pure delight for me. She always made learning simply wonderful.
I love the art you chose to display with the poem...Mothers doing what they do best, sheltering their beloved ones. It beckons to my heart Sister Soul...
May the Peace and Joyousness of this Holiday Season settle over you like a great worn shawl.
