The poem follows a structured format where various animals take turns answering questions about Cock Robin's death, each adding their part to the story. The Sparrow admits to killing Cock Robin with a bow and arrow, and various other animals describe their roles in witnessing the event, catching his blood, making his shroud, digging his grave, and participating in the funeral rites. Through its engaging rhymes and illustrations, the book showcases the interactions between birds and other creatures, highlighting themes of loss, love, and the communal aspects of grief as they bid farewell to Cock Robin.
