Poetry by Michael Bechayda

Annoying Birds

Little birds under my roof

Chirping loudly

I can't stand that sound

Day and night it drive me nuts

Peace and quiet is all ask

A thought in my head

To bring a bunch of cats

To drive you birdies out

But I can't stand the thought

On what the cats would do

I think a bloody massacre of birds

I'm sure it will be

But I'll build a little bird house

For all you little birdies

So don't worry I'll keep you birdies safe and fed

And your welcome to live close to me but not under my roof
