Hey Lady From Down Under, You Don'T Belong Down Under a Tablet of Talent
and don't say no......i'll bet you if i had asked you to wrte me a poem about the beauty of a
mother with a nest of eggs,but make it as funny as you are capable of being...methinks you
may want to write for the wrong reason
A MANIAC FROM LIKE UPSIDE DOWN ON THE EARTH SHOULD HAVE WRITTEN THIS:This is the
meanest poem sandi ever read!
PROUD TO BE A FATHER TO FEATHERS
She picked that particular point on the porch
Where hung a philodendron by the flame of a Tiki torch
My wife and i never witnessed her arrival
But the bird knew now it was a matter of survival
The mama kept going to that plant and I wondered why
And when I saw her reason it made me saliently sigh
Within the potted plant she’d picked out with such care
Suddenly it turned into six tiny eggs in their mama’s little lair
I'd silently and quickly check on mama and her brood
Without a sound I’d make certain mama had enough food
It was thrilling to watch each day and to share a mother’s heart
Alas I knew one day the fledglings would, by instinct, depart
Well I checked every day and sometimes even at night
In the dark I would worry and check if the eggs were all right
i knew very soon they would hatch so i gathered each egg gently for safety’s sake
because i didn't want them to break before my wife could use them to make a most moist and
marvelous cake
