The Rescue




the nightingalefrom france met a charming fellowfrom kent in england
they flew together on their migratory route to the sahara
and on a large boatthey spied in a gilded cagean oriental 
nightingale bursting with color
she was so charmingher voice so pure, the sweetesta gift to the king
they were in love, at once
no fear, my little birdma cherie! we will save youcried the young turks
and they searched for the keys
but the cook saw themcaught them and locked them -three nightingales now
for the king!

for Haiku Heights and Open Link Night over at dVerse
a little bit of tomfoolery as is required this week

sometime this week, Poets United posted The Owl and The Pussycat which inspired the poem above. then came haiku heights with the theme rescue. and today OLN demands fun and frolic
 but i do feel a bit awful, haiku for me, is for deep feelings, intense emotions
profound discoveries. i just couldn't help myself.
