Fat Lady is in several Yahoo Groups that are all about parrots. As if My Majesty were just a parrot. She is so stupid! Anyway one of these groups is called Awesome Amazons. That is somewhat accurate. All Amazons are awesome. My Majesty, however, takes issue with being lumped in with birds. Just plain parrots.
Anyway, someone in this group named Cherie sent a poem, supposedly about Amazon Parrots.
It starts out fine, for ordinary Amazon Parrots:
BIRD WISDOM
If you like it, it’s mine
If I like it, it’s mine
If I can reach it, it’s mine
If it’s in my beak, it’s mine
If I can take it from you, it’s mine
If I had it a little while ago, it’s mine
If it’s mine, it must never appear to be yours in any way
If I’m chewing something, all the pieces are mine
If it looks like mine, it’s mine
If you like it, it’s mine
If I like it, it’s mine
If I can reach it, it’s mine
If it’s in my beak, it’s mine
If I can take it from you, it’s mine
If I had it a little while ago, it’s mine
If it’s mine, it must never appear to be yours in any way
If I’m chewing something, all the pieces are mine
If it looks like mine, it’s mine
Of course for My Majesty would need to add a last line:
