Gilded Lady of the Night

Scented Nightingale sets sail Foraging through every, well-forded dale Primped, preened emasculated shell Black crown renovated for sale From seductive perch casts alluring spell Easy catch your lucrative Grail Burnished cloak gleaming 'neath the moon pale Brightly adorned feathers flap and flail Arched talons ready to caress and assail Hoary head cocked; each passing suitor to hail Chirping beak with flattering lines doth swell Her prominent tail quivers at the sight of every, virile male Innocent malingerer she'll stalk then trail 'Till clutching his beating heart and hearing his bleating wail
