Bird's Eye-View

  The ostrich hides her head in the sand
    most birds hit the skies as planned

  The woodpecker pecks at some woody-good-wood
    while the hummingbird’s wings hum as they should

  The robin comes out to strut her stuff
     back in she goes, the ground's too tough

  And, O, for a pair of cardinals
     to fly to the edge of the Dardanelles

  Flying creatures inspire and exhilarate, you see
     except when they tinkle all over me
