“The Bird’s Best Friend”

My little chicks are getting picky

They say they won’t eat worms because they’re “icky”

I think what’s needed is a bit more zest

To reduce the complaints here within my nest

So I’m referencing “The Bird’s Best Friend”

To bring these protests to an end

I’m sure these sauces, bakes, and stews

My little ones will not refuse

And if they do I wash my wings

Small robins are not queens and kings!
