We have a secret, just we three,
The robin, and I, and the sweet cherry tree;
The bird told the tree, and the tree told me,
And nobody knows it but just we three.
But of course, the robin knows best,
Because he built the - I shan't tell the rest;
And laid the four little - something - in it.
I'm afraid I shall tell it every minute.
But if the tree and the robin don't peep,
I'll try my best the secret to keep;
Though I know when the little birds fly about,
Then the whole secret will be out!

What beautiful, beautiful poems and pictures you have! I am visiting from Miss Sandy's blog this morning. Just dropped by to say hi! I'll have to visit your other blogs - I'm sure they're just as lovely!
This is absolutely darling! Love the poem and the pictures! :)
I love this poem. We have a cherry tree that the robins (and many other birds enjoy:) Although... the cherries are the worst tasting things you ever put in your mouth. I can't figure out why...

That has to be by A.A. Milne
Try digging about 20 cm deep around the tree out to the drip line and then adding a manure blend to the soil.
