Because They Bother: Scraps Of Worries

Rating: 5.0


Hand

A few playful beaking from him
And I remember
Did not soap the dirt off my hand!

Here I stand
Bothered
Praying

My parrot doesn’t get an infection.

Head

Because it bothers
Low I stoop
To pen about bird poop!

On my way from office
Fell the hit-never-miss.

Finding no dried leaf
I used my handkerchief
And verified from a stranger
There wasn’t a stain!

Bird poop is a bane.

So they said
Is the chance my head
Would soon be bereft of hair

Quite unfair!

Here I stand
Bothered
Praying

The few remaining don’t leave me.

Oh, you poor man! The bird took aim and did not miss the target. And so it became a poem. Lucky for us, brought many smiles!
