Life can be utterly absurd!
I feel intimidated by a bird!
Of course, the pretty little thing
Begs off, because it likes to sing.
It "waddled" down my driveway,
..............................................mind
you,
Captivating all to find, who
act upon impulsive gesture
..............................................and
take "bird" in,
repulsing quest for freedom.
Meanwhile, "bird" seems happy.
Reckon he’s some birdling's pappy?
(Since then I’ve found that our caged
"he"
is not a male, but a pretty "she.")
