List - My Beautiful Parrot Lilly
Lilly is chatty, beautiful, playful and energetic.....always chirping at night
She turns her neck 180 degree, when she is bored.....what is she looking for? Me.
She has a yellow head and a blue tail.....what a color combination
We both listen to my favorite song, roll on the Mississippi together and she sings louder than my radio
She sleeps during the day and search for food during the night
Removing all the crackers from the drawer with her four toes
When i scream out of anger, she scream the same thing
Jumping on my bed with her colorful feathers
Can't even tell her to shut up
She says the same thing as me
More like I'm recording my voice and listening to it
Like friends, we fight and settle
Because friends are precious
Lilly is not in cage
she made no attempt to escape
And she won't fly away tomorrow
We have a strong bond like family
We have no one but each other
Lilly is part of me and i am part of her
