Pigeon

There’s a pigeon on the rooftop
And he’s driving me insane
For his constant pigeon noises
Seem to permeate my brain

From his perch upon the chimney
He’s coo cooing to his mate
It just thunders through the building
And it comes out in the grate

The noise is quite incessant
And no matter where I sit
I still hear this damned bird calling
It annoys me, quite a bit

How I wish he’d find another house
To broadcast to his lover
Why does he have to use my roof
Why can’t he find another

Love this one slightly humorous but probably not if you are actually having to listen to the bird constantly. Reminds me of a poem by Robert Frost about shooing a bird away from his door. Can't remember the title though. Keep writing. Sara
