Bird Talk
Bird Talk
My little green friend often stops by
Just to get things off his chest
It's not always easy up in the sky
So, he needs to get away from the rest
Of the other parrots in his flock
(Technically rose-winged parakeets)
Sometimes he feels they tease and mock
Making his efforts seem like defeats.
Overall, they're quite a good group
But he's an inward sensitive soul
And needs some time alone to recoup
So, I lend an ear and try to console.
We chit chat back and forth for a while
In the early hours of the day
I imagine I see a big parrot smile
Before his wings spread and he flies away.
