I'm thinking of a little bird,
who fluttered in and said a word,
it put a secret in my ear,
and left it so 'twould fester there.

The secret grew, and grew some more,
and then it fell out on the floor,
there it was for all to see,
sitting there, embarrassing me.

What could I do but give a shout,
and order that foul secret out,
it ran for the door like a cheetah from hell,
clinking and clanging, just like a bell.

The moral of the story is,
although you may be a whiz,
open windows bring in words,
and they can sometimes come in herds!

'embaressing'... and the third line in the third stanza <.<; those three spots just don't seem to fit with the rest.

Otherwise, a lovely little poem. Although I don't fully understand what it's implying <.<;

2007-12-02 RiddleRose: haha.. i think what it's implying is that i was feeling ridiculous, and felt like doing a rhyming poem. i'd completely forgotten about this one! i think when i was writing it i was just trying ot get back ot rhyming, i wasn't particularly worried about meaning. so no deep meaning ot be discovered here, just a silly little poem!

2007-12-09 Tyr Zalo Hawk: Ahh... I see. XD Well, all my poems, even my play ones, unfortunately have a meaning, so it's why I asked. ^_^

But maybe I'm just too deep of a thinker? XD

2007-12-12 RiddleRose: bah. deep thinking is excellent. but it's also good to be able ot play, and just write something to make someone laugh, or even just for fun! you should try it sometime.
