To a Flamingo

Oh, fabulous flamingo, you step out of the haze, feathered in your cotton-candy glaze. And imbue joy to my days as I observe your whimsical ways. Extraordinary, you never cease to amaze, as your legendary pink fuels scientific essays. A splendiferous bird worthy of praise, uniquely beautiful, you hold my gaze. (Monorhyme/ Ode) 10-05-2020
