Your Budgie Loves You

Alan S Jeeves 1951 (Lancashire)



Your budgie loves you dearly,
He loves his gilt abode;
He really loves you, clearly,
Abounding love is owed.
You perch-ased him a lovely swing,
He loves to flit to roost,
He loves to swing and do his thing ~
His boredom is reduced.

You pamper him, he loves your stroke,
He risks a loving peck;
He nips your finger, that's no joke!
But he thinks 'What the heck!'
Your budgie loves you ~ his best friend ~
And sings and chat's with you;
He'll be your soulmate to the end
Repaying love that's due.

You open out your window wide
He loves the draughty flow;
He breathes the fresh air deep inside
And loves the breezy blow.
You open up his gilded door
To feed him lovely grain:
He loves the open window for
He's never seen again.
