A Poem from a friend Poetles...
BILLY THE BUDGIE
Billy the Budgie wanted to be a Parrot,
He wanted it very much and a lot..
His mum and dad "Don't be a fool
We are going to send you to school,
You are going to learn
It is wisdom you should yearn."
.
So Billy went to school,
But he remained a fool.
He put many school dinners
Into his inners.
.
This put Billy in a good mood,
And he ate lots and lots of food.
He went back for seconds and thirds,
And he grew bigger than all the other birds.
.
Into his tummy food he poured,
His mums and dads advice he ignored.
How to grow into a Parrot he found the key,
But instead he grew up to become a Turkey.
.
But when Christmas came around
He was plucked from the ground.
He came to a terrible fate,
He was cooked and served on a plate.
.
The other budgies lived for many years,
But Billy's mum is still in tears.
So listen to your father and mother,
Be yourself, don't try and be another.
