Poemattic: Poetry and Art for the Soul

 

The day our parrot ran away

We were sad and worried the whole darn day

 

It had learned to say almost everything

We taught him.

What might be a problem

Is he knew all of our secrets too

So I hope he keeps them well

but there’s no knowing how many he’ll tell

 

His name is Lou

I hope he knew

how much we truly care

If you should see him anywhere

whatever you do

Please don’t call him on a dare.
