A short piece I wrote one evening when I couldn't sleep

Down a lonely path I walked  
And heard a robin's song.  
It nested there among the green  
But was gone before too long.  
  
Yet I came to it again  
Some way farther down the road.  
I sang its song back to it  
Though its tune I could not hold.  
  
Still I sang and was proud I did  
Though the bird was not impressed.  
It flew then from the canopy  
And left, though I did my best.  
  
Down a lonely path I walked  
And sang a robin's song.  
It drifted there among the green  
And I was gone before too long.
