The Parrot's Aulette

See the deep sadness in the parrot's eyes remembering his pretty mate that made him sing and declared him king... did he foresee agony? His feathers are white longing to chase a kite; he flies in limited space desiring freedom and see flowers bloom when sunrise sets them ablaze! Can a parrot live in a small cage and survive for very long? Fall's leaves turn auburn, his love can't return... soon he will stop breathing!
