The Wiliest Bird

THE WILIEST BIRD My hero is a wily bird, so gutsy, he's thought quite absurd, for when he's down and almost out, he's up and fit for six more bouts. He'll be blown up, he'll be blown down, whatever, it is turned around to energize another go; through all adversity, he'll grow. Ever onwards, never wilting at Roadrunner ever tilting like his hero, Don Quixote, my hero, Wile E. Coyote ! Alan McAlpine Douglas (in response to request to write about my hero)
