Description
THE ROBIN
By: Kahlil Gibran
O Robin, sing ! for the secret of eternity is in song.
I wish I were as you, free from prisons and chains.
I wish I were as you; a soul flying over the valleys,
Sipping the light as wine is sipped from ethereal cups.
I wish I were as you, innocent, contented and happy
Ignoring the future and forgetting the past.
I wish I were as you in beauty, grace and elegance
With the wind spreading my wings for adornment by the dew.
I wish I were as you, a thought floating above the land
Pouring out my songs between the forest and the sky.
O Robin, sing ! and disperse my anxiety.
I listen to the voice within your voice that whispers in my inner ear.

Just Outside
*****
In the morning, you will hear the robin�s song, and sure enough, there is one just outside the window, tearing berries from a bush or worms from the ground, hopping along, flinging dry leaves every which way, not shy and definitely not delicate, but elegant for all that��..a handsome bird.
*****
The American Robin is a busy, common and sturdy bird, and I wanted to paint it with deep, rich colors, strong values, and in an active pose, to highlight the qualities that make this bird so popular.
*****
We certainly are seeing plenty of robins here in Colorado, now. Are they out hunting and foraging in your part of the world?
*****
Visit this site for some really cool activities related to the robin, and most especially to hear the different calls this bird makes.
