Who's Fooling Who

Some birdies really...

Can be so unkind

All day pecking 

Only gripes and whines

It's not hot enough 

So she ups and flies

Down to Miami beach via South Carolina skies

She probably thinks... Oh Lord 

I’m a Dodo bird 

Maybe it's a secret lover, tell me, have you heard

Whoever it is...don't say 

I don't bother mind 

Blue Jay’s staying over and it’s tweeting time

Your poem gave me a chuckle, Arturo, especially when you mentioned the dodo bird. How easily the subject of your verse was able to replace the bird that flew south. Love this one! Hugs, Carolyn
