Notes About The Poem

Pleiades 4 Contest Sponsored by Joseph May 09/11/23

Emu

Even though they have wings
Emu’s can’t fly. Hens lay
Emerald-green eggs in
Expansive leaf lined nests.
Each emu egg would make
Enormous omelets
Envisage eating that!

Well, I'd rather eat an 'emu omelet' than an emu itself. ~ Mr. A.P. Tight

Me thinks that your Emu knowledge is as exhaustive as mine (which, in layman’s terms means… we both have Google), I mean, who knew that Emus had green eggs? Enjoyed this. All the best in the contest, Jan. Terry
