Taxidermist

~Taxidermist~ Dear little blue bird sitting on the mat Please don’t poop on it because it isn’t tat. That’s it, sit on the bird bath there on the rim You look a fine little chap sitting there so trim. I am a taxidermist and I am after a blue tit Why don’t you jump on my hand so I can see, and you can have a little sit? My collection lacks a bird; we could perhaps make a date It’s a pity you are alone I could do with your little mate You would fill the place nicely it’s a pity you are not red But I can soon paint you up as I am a taxidermist- I think I said.
no offense to real taxidermists out there I know you do not do this xx Competition Entry: For Catie Lindsey comp: Word Games. © 1/06/2012 ~GG~

What a fun poem. I was just thinking that Thanksgiving is probably a taxidermist favorite holiday if he loves his work. And it's a day he can stuff himself as well. Loved your poem.
