Different Shades of Purple
Far away at the break of day, the Peacock spreads his beautiful feathers.
While the Purple House Finch
Feeds its young from my feeder
To him life is a cinch
Until the cat comes as a reader
Of those birds, which he is a seeker
The Mocking Bird sings
Because hidden with nest_eggs
Escapes fast cat's swings
For nest rest in rose trellis
Clever this fellow and mean
Purple Barn Swallow rises high
Above this stress greater than the rest
