Josie's Budgie Tales

Josie gets to write all the poems
But I will have my turn
I want to write a poem about
How she began a Christmas ornament

Josie is not a good flyer, in fact
She gets in to a lot of trouble with
Her crash landings and such
Her last one was the best
She couldn’t stop and flew
Straight into the Christmas tree

And became an ornament
Mommy started laughing
It was a sight to see
A yellow feathered budgie
Trying to get out of the tree
She really looked silly hanging there

I can fly better than that and
I told her so, maybe next year
She will be the star on the top
After all she thinks she is already
