A Unique Species
Far from the earth
there in the dearth
there being a species
tall and high in the treatise
something rare in the world
almost extinct in the world.
These being a variety of bird
dynamic in the earthen gird
peculiar in habits and post
with looks down cast
moving almost very fast
taking flight even faster.
The bird is called differently
hard to spell independently
needing a prompt assuredly
hard to pronounce legitimately
being a tough variance
calling for a radiance.
