Parrot in the Pine Tree
On Monday I looked out the window at dawn
And saw pretty oranges, and yellows with red,
A parrot's tail feathers spilled like paint from the pine
Then it turned its bright green head
I saw its chocolate-colored beak as it turned
And looked at me like it was lost,
Its long claws were wrapped round the elegant pine
And tightly held a walnut that had been tossed.
On Friday some blue jays had taken its place
With cardinals lined up like before,
The tree branches looked like a clothesline that day
With T-shirts drying galore.
I imagined the parrot was looking for home
Maybe back to the jungle he flew,
Or maybe to the deep and very dark forest
Behind the library he knew.
I hoped that the parrot had found its place
Somewhere it could finally rest,
It needed to relax and settle down for a while
And build its very own nest
