Blue Jay

Hey-hey, Blue Jay, what do you say?

It sure is cold outside today

With chilly winds making a fuss

I’m not surprised to hear you cuss

I’m trekking out across my lawn

For I noticed the feed was gone

The birds checking impatiently

To see if I have brought more seed

Reminders in cardinal red

Telling me they need to be fed

But all you other birds take heed

Don’t get between Jay and his seed

‘Cause Jay’s the boldest bird I know

Don’t take guff from squirrel nor crow

And his lesson is hard to learn

The rest of you best wait your turn
