A bird had black-white feathers
And had little-thin eyes
So cute its looks
It came down
And walked about
To find food
Once it caught
A long-round-red worm
And it ate
It stirred its velvet head
So pretty and beautifully
And it sang a song
Because it found a worm
It satiated thereby
And unrolled its feathers
Again stirred its head
Very innocently and proudly
And flew home happily.
