My other sisters,

Chatter box went home with Magpie P
Listener neither could ever be
Neither stopped talking
Both kind of squawking
So they invited others to come drink tea...

A talking bird is smart let’s agree,
they have a wonderful vocabulary,
so it may seem bazaar,
that as smart as birds are;
Are they smarter than a spelling bee?...

Squawking all the day; cackling hen, ruler of the roost. 
The others chit-chat; gossiping chickens having a party.
Cackler disagrees with all that’s being said and is ignored....

Well here we are, another great day
The chickens are fed, the cows have hay
The crows are squawking
Wild animals are stalking
All's copacetic, think I'll practice ballet...

Sue suffers from constant lorgorrhea
This condition has no panacea –
Like a parrot who’s squawking
She just cannot stop talking
It’s well-known as verbal diarrhoea

Looked out my window and to my dismay
Saw two birdies making love, she was squawking away
The male dude birdy
Was squawking sumthin' dirty
Censored the rest, it was a sexual fowl ballet...

Squawking Jay

The Blue Jay sits in regal pose
always looking down his nose
at the chirping birds that sing
while preening ego’s azure wings.

hyacinth macaws
perched in their black cherry tree
periwinkle skies

the moon's fully blue
shining on hydrangeas
squawking in the air

beginning of dreams
the end of the golden road
pearly stars winking...

Walked at the mall this morning right outta bed
Clucking and squawking like an old hen with the bends
Perseverance is a must
Just brush off the dust
Showing all the youngies this old guy ain't dead...

Sun's beams with ardent fervor gleam
Showers caress winter's fallow domain 
Sprouting flowers their silty dander stream
Squawking squirrels, sparring birds occupy fertile terrain
Spring's revitalized chorus echoes a new refrain...

Pulling at my broken wings
she's got me back to heaven--
this poet of surprising words,
painted, whispered phrases--
she and I remembering
nights and days of falling off
the squawking perch...
the writing desk...
falling off...  
falling off......

Surfing with my board
excitement overflows
my heart in time
as my feet carry me
the kicked up sand
the seagulls squawking
as I see the flat water
and realize
the ocean is still.
I am sad i can't surf, but
at least i look cool...
...with my board....

Hawk Hawk 
Loud you squawk
Squawking squawking
While you’re hawking
Circling, circling 
Large wingspan
Hawking squawking
With a plan

Hawk Hawk
Loud you squawk
Squawking squawking
While your hawking
Circling circling
I have a hunch
You are hawking
For your lunch...

The parson's parrot was a sinful bird,

   Known for squawking many a naughty word!

      Said parson, "Let's make a pact;

         Here and now clean up your act!"

            Squawked bird, "Those very words from you I heard!"

FEAR
nightmare
seemed so real 

couldn’t move or scream
as little sister drowned
loud, squawking birds attacked me

“Fear spins scary scenes in the dark.”

rage on maroon skies
hued blurred blooms stormy
wafting dyed glory

squawking chaos cries
jade nature can be so droll
green waves crash and roll

musical raindrops
where are my orange flowers
tempest of glum hours

houses and quaint shops
anticipate saffron sun
scarlet rose vision...
