β€˜Thank you for your beady eyes,

That always make me smile.

Your infectious enthusiasm

Just like that of a child,

Lifts our spirits up

When the day seems bleak.

Your cooing, your gurgling

Is your attempt at trying to speak.

We rescued you two years ago,

From the claws of a crow.

In effect you rescued us

With your caring heart, you know.

β€˜Just a bird’, some folk sneer,

I would not fret or worry.

They know not the love of a feathered friend,

For them I feel truly sorry.’

This is our pet bulbul Mac. We tried to nurse him and leave him in the wild but he was hurt and took 8 months to begin flying. So now he is our family member.πŸ’š
