Mocking Bird

i once had a mocking bird
who repeated all of my words
whenever i would cuss
he would make a great fuss
with the fowlest tongue ever heard

They can be quite formidable! I had a cat who got his tail and rear pecked down to the bone and he wasn't the cat that got their eggs, either; it was the neighbors. We had to carry him to and from his box; he was so sore. Good Limerick!
