Birds

English Budgie vs. American Parakeet By PuppiesAreProzac

 

Birds

 

I keep small birds for pets

I love every one of them

Even when I’ve stopped talking

It seems that their conversation never ends

 

They take the food I offer

Eating every last seed

Sometimes their mates outside the window

Are still talking tweet tweet

 

An on-going war

You could probably say

Rages in my house for territory

Both night and day

 

But I love the little critters

each and every one of them

Throughout their mindless gabble

They see me as friend.
