Played A Hunch Poem by Ima Ryma

Played A Hunch



A leopard grabbed a bird in flight,
And was about to eat for lunch,
When the bird, aware of its plight,
Chirped to the leopard on a hunch,
'Hey leopard, if you set me free, '
'A magic feather I will give.'
'And if you stick it on your head, '
'You can fly, if you let me live.'
The leopard thought this a swell deal,
And took the feather from the bird.
The bird, saved from being a meal,
Did think to itself, 'How absurd! '

'Hey leopard, best of luck to you, '
And off to freedom the bird flew.
