Cheep!
I speak to you of wonderful trees
and of butterflies and bees...Cheep!
Who let this bird into my poem?
Catch him, and to the door, let's show 'im...Cheep!
Until we control the situation,
I cannot continue my recitation...Cheep!
Nervous twitching, restless mumbling,
an audience to a performance humbling...Cheep!
