Robin and Worm (Con't)

Robin and Worm (Con't)

Robin waited a long time.  Still no worm.  She wondered whether voles eat worms.  She wondered whether she had been had.  Her speculations were brought to a screeching halt by a thick, raspy voice from behind.
"Whatcha waitin for?"  It was crow and there was a note of sarcasm in his voice.  "Worms don't just crawl out of the ground, ya know  .... unless it's rainin."

"Well, as a matter of fact, Mr. Know-it-all, I expect a worm to crawl out of that hole any minute!   And.... I expect he'll be pushing a sun seed for me."

Crow laughed so hard, he fell on his side.  The picture of a worm pushing a sunflower seed was just too much. Finally, crow got hold of himself and stood up.  "You won't mind if I wait with ya for this little miracle, then, would ya?"

Robbin was totally embarrassed .... and a bit pissed off at crow, but she managed to keep her composer.  "It's true!"  There was a long pause.  "You wouldn't believe the story, anyway."
