It was inspired by a little Robin that perched on my garden spade. As a schoolboy, I had a Saturday job doing odd gardening jobs locally, and this particular couple were of advancing years and were unable to dig over their small vegetable garden.

It was during the depths of winter when the soil was frozen solid that I attempted to dig it over!

That little robin probably enjoyed my pathetic efforts whilst I was cogitating on its great fortitude and resilience in surviving over the winter months and finding food.

So I wrote a song about it! Its simplicity is its key, and I hope it encapsulates the simple but beautiful life of that little bird. It watched me, and I watched it!
