*Malabar Trogon is listed in Indian Birds-of-Paradise
--------------------------------------------------------
Blue eye shadow, blue beak, black innocent eyes - bleak
Chestnut back with designed grey gown and tail ~ misspeaks
He with a white necklace, she a smooth ochred chested
Silent birds still in bare forests at God's behest
If I was any more relaxed I would be dead, she said.
I have no reply.
Since I have no belief in dying, dead or death.
I think cat would have been a better ending to her sentence.
