Sweet Grey Birdie

Little bird upon my back porch
Are you going to be okay?
It seems you’ve flown into my window
And you look in quite a daze
Ah, I see you are a grey bird
What kind I can’t be sure
But your round black eyes are blinking fast
From what you’ve just endured
I’ll smile at you, sweet grey bird
I’ll slowly tilt my head
I’ll wink and let you know that
I’m not one that you should dread
There, there, birdie you’ll be fine now
Yeah, that’s it, just turn my way
Now you’re little head’s a-tilting
Just like mine gave a slight sway
So I’ll watch you as you’re blinking
And I’ll blink in time with you
Then I throw in playful winking
To my surprise you wink back too!
Little birdie soft and grey, now
Don’t you fear my silly cat
For he’s really much too stupid
To be anything but fat
I shall hide him, he shan’t hurt you
Oh don’t unfurl your feathered wings
Don’t fly off and leave me longing
For what next my window brings
But you’ve gone—it’s all my cat’s fault
What a stupid, big galoot
Now I’m glaring at my fat cat
‘Cause he’s gone and made you scoot

Nice! It made me smile.
I really must get back to reading your poetry. I've been unaccountably lazy of late.

I can't tell you the overwhelming sense of peace and wonder I derived from this. How I wish I was there with you watching this bird.
