My Dear Little Parrot
My Dear little Parrot
My dear little parrot,Rosette is her name,
I cannot sweep her out of my memory,
Time heals wounds but not this one,
This one is too deep to be healed.
Huum!It`s painful,how do I write this?
It seems just like yesterday,
Her mimic~very impressive and humorous,
I remember the day I mixed honey with her grains,
"kokoo!this is sweet,master this is sweet"
she said in her fine sweet melodious voice.
Displaying her wings like the zealous peacock,
she has a way of calming you when you are angry,
she dances to the music like a pop star,
Exposing the hidden secrets of people like a star gazer,
she is truly special,out of this world,
she is more than a pet and not a fret.
She is not human but very humane,
Her style and character very mundane,
Her display of wits will make you fall in love,
Her deep feelings made her meeker than a dove,
She saved my life,how can I forget?
"master SEG gas is smelling,outside,outside"she enthused,
As I rushed outside,I heard a big BANG..
The explosion came from the kitchen,
It happened so fast the whole house was engulfed
by fire due to the gas explosion,I fainted,
I lost my niece and her that day.
Oh!Rosette..when will I see you again?when.?
