Deftness to Daftness

Deftness to Daftness
As I sit here watching my flock play
And wondering if they know how silly they look
While for them it’s nothing new and happens everyday
As they swing from playground cranny to bookshelf nook
Ah the funny little bird hanging by his toe
As he scrambles so valiantly up the rope
Herculean the struggle and a long way to go
Trying to look regal and not like a total dope
No other critter can go from deftness to daftness
Like the Gymnastic fantastic feathered performer
Impressing on us their repertoire with its vastness
As the aerialist dives from high to the lowest corner
Then comes crashing down from above …
… till at the bottom they then lay,
looking up forlornly and seeking our love
We worry; we laugh but adore them anyway
