A chapter in the book Worlds

Parakeet World 9

by Bill Schott


Having problems with your parakeet?

Don't throw your wings up in defeat.

Call 1-800- MAN-OMAN,

for caged bird expert, Dandy Dan.


Dan is a bird whisperer,

an all-things-ave ent’preneur ;

he gets your bird to dance and sing

or basically just anything.


He'll get that parakeet to laugh

climb a rope or take a bath

play piano, quote Shakespeare

pull a nickel from your ear.


The bird will imitate a fish,

a snake, a pig, if that's your wish;

A fourth for bridge? Carry your bags?

Your enemies will wear toe tags.


Anything from A to Zoo,

he'll teach your parakeet to do;

so call that number right away

make owning pretty Polly pay.
