For the Birds

I almost thought I blew it ‘Cause the birds had disappeared. However I’d construe it, They were gone – or so I feared. But I went and bought some suet Thinking that might bring them back And before I even knew it, They showed up to have a snack. So before you’re thinking, “Screw it,” Since your birds are off their seed, Just some suet oughta do it – Fatty feed is what you need!

G'day Ilene... enjoyed your poem and the advice. What happens if you blend suet with seed. Do you get more variety of birds? Catch you soon Ilene-Lindsay

Birds weren't up in the pine tree. Neighbor Tim wondered what could be. Aha he said, I see. That rascal cat is up the tree. He loves the birds and feeds them well. You know what he's thinkin'. That rascal cat can go to ..... :) Peace. Merry Christmas ilene.
