Aloysius Wishes

Alousius was a most auspicious bird He was also a bit daffy and wacky And constantly went awry and absurd As a bird one might say he was absolutely atrocious And his appetency of eating rotten week old berries Gave him the worst possible case of halitosis Oh How! he did anguish the blue birds next door That fell from their perches every time he exhaled Emitting an odor that was completely obnoxious for Any bird's friendship of his allure to be availed How could he assuage this most delicate dilemma? With great gusto he would absolve to reverse his song By inhaling on the exhale which was quite a "problema" He would absolve the stench like crimes to become one who Soon was known as the famous rare species of legend's throng As the ooooooOOOOOOHCOOOOOOooooo Cuckoo
