Notes About The Poem

Idle Chatter

bursting into loud and joyous laughter
gossip will go no farther 
monk conures, preen, and pose

 Poetry Contest: Writing Challenge 4, March 2019- Kimo-
Sponsored by: Dear Heart 

My brother & sister in-law own 9 green cheek conures  , 2 parakeet, 2 quakers, 2 kakautas
When I come into the room, they have to let the whole house know I’ve invaded their space.

Eve, congratulations on your win in my contest, this is delightful, oh I have heard the joyous chatter. I used to have parakeets but when I got sick I could no longer take care of them. I miss that chatter, chittering and singing off key !

How unique! Tell me, can sponsors see pics on poems submitted to their contests? I've always wondered. Poetry hugs ... CayCay

Hello CayCay, no we can not see if the poet has posted a picture. If I run into a word I don't recognize I always google.
