……………………………………………………………………
Sing … sing a song …
……………………………………………………………..
Sing out loud … sing out strong …
…………………………………………………………….
Sing of good things, not bad …
Sing of happy, not sad …
……………………………………………………………..
Coo … coo your song …
Make it friendly …
to last your whole life long …
……………………………………………………………..
Don’t worry …
your voice is beautiful …
It’s one that we love to hear …
……………………………………………………………..
Just sing … sing a song …
……………………………………………………………..
Chirp … chirp your song …
Let the world chirp along …
……………………………………………………………..
Sing up high … sing down low …
……………………………………………………………..
Sing in sun or in snow …
……………………………………………………………..
Sing, sing a song …
Sing at bath-time …
to prove there’s nothing wrong …
……………………………………………………………..
Don’t worry …
your song is beautiful …
It’s one that we love to hear …
……………………………………………………………..
So, sing …
sing your song …

Terra, what a beautiful uplifting blog, now also in my favourites. Hope you got my PM.

Singing and smiling here Terra, the Carpenters were and still are a huge favourite, some great photographs here, most of the birds content to sit and listen whilst surveying the scene whilst your little robin is warbling along at full throttle and obviously loving it as well, lol, nice to see Crocus looking as handsome as ever........
