Blue Jays and "Friends"A Poem by Shelley WarnerI experimented with triplets and a rhyme schemeThe Blue Jay lands on the freshly rototilled earth, Swishing dirt from side to side, For all it’s worth He darts toward a Robin looking for worms Off flies the brown and red And to the dirt, the Jay returns The guts of Halloween pumpkins lie scattered around The Blue Jay and a squirrel occupy parts of the
