Birdsong Blues

It's spring Birds sing I hear Their cheer Tweet tweet How sweet Day one What fun! Day two Doves coo Day three What glee Day four Crows caw Day five Survive Day six Wild chicks Cock crows Ire grows Loud quail Nerves frail All week Gulls shriek Cheep cheep No sleep Mad tit That's it! Have words With birds Spring’s past At last No din; Lie in! 24.10.20 Completely Your Choice (32)Any Form Any Theme Poetry Contest Sponsored by Brian Strand

Wonderfully entertaining footles, Wendy. I'm wondering why the birds were silent on day 3. lol Loved that you took their songs from something glorious to something less appealing. Great write.

Quite simply because I didn't want to drag it out too long! I'm really glad it appealed, Jenna. Thank you so much for reading and commenting.

I'm glad it appealed, Jan. I wondered about 'Could shoot That coot' but thought it might offend the keen ornithologists amongst us!
