She Tried To Give Clown Some Birds

Birds flock her way, chasing Debbie all over town Parakeets, gold finch, cardinals, wrens lightly brown. She has no idea why. Maybe because she does not put them down? I wish you could give some to me said a trickster bit of a clown. Debbie willed the clown penguins, ostriches, and one crow. They were stubborn and ran off, away from the clown, though. Why didn’t you like the guy? Debbie asked them, using a voice so sweet. All she heard was cackle, grackle, cheep, tweet, cheep, tweet.
