Wow, SB. That is really good!
It hits very close to home too. Do you know how hard it is trying to be a tough guy when your friends know you play peek-a-boo with your bird, and have to sing oldies with your parrot because your Mother taught them to him? "I'm an Old Cowhand from the Rio Grande", and "Moon River" come to mind.
Hmmmm....maybe that's why I subconsciously taught him those swear words...so I could cling to some shred of maculinity.

I guess if I knew 30 years ago what I know now I'd be far richer monetarily, but much poorer had I never known the love of the feathered friends that have passed though my doors........guess I'm just glad no one told me

Aweeh. That was a great poem. The first ones, where shes talking about standing in the check-out line with a bunch of toys.... Thats totally me. Toulouse may be tiny, but she goes through BIG toys REAAALLYY fast. And I spend alot of money on her, and her very expensive pellets lol.

Awwwwwww!!!! *goes totally melty*
Every single word is so so true
Besides all the true facts, this particular line keep crossing my mind all day
Nobody told me I would make friends I will never see and that I would worry about them and theirs as if family.
