SUMMER CELEBRATION SIGHT
Oh, look
A feast is on!
The beautiful birds
Are having
In a vast blue
Bowl,
Vanilla scoops
Of ice cream...l
It is a party
The king of all
Parties
To celebrate
The Summer
Season!
I can see the
Vanilla scoops
Mingled with blackcurrant
Ice cream !
Oh, how they
Enjoy
My feathery friends
With envious eyes
I look on...
It is not
That I want their
Share
Of creamy coldness...
For should I eat
A spoon
Break wind I shall
And it will not be
A pleasant smell!
Come along then
Summer star
Shine warm and
Bright...
Thus melting away
The birds' celebratory
Delight...
No longer
Will I then be
Indulging in jealousy...!
