The Chuck That Longed to Be Loved
How two birds met and forever stayed in love
The Chuck That Longed to Be Loved
Sat in a tree like he owned it
tail like a fan, feathers all flash
singing like someone was listening
No one was
He wasn’t shy, just stupid
kept flinging his heart out
like someone might catch it
Flowers under him
sun above grinning like a clown
and there he was
squawking love songs to nobody
Every bird that passed
gave him the once-over
then the once-away
Too bright, too weird
too much
Still he stayed
legs locked
chest full of noise
heart swinging like bait
He wasn’t giving up
He was giving everything
and not one bugger cared
Till one day
a bird like himself
landed beside him
looked him up and down and said,
Hi fancy a kiss? then we can fly
Now a pair of love birds
flying up and away
true to their love every day ❤️
