On the importance of oiling your feathers well.

[pseudomonas]

I have been playing around with word lists and scansion, and getting into double-dactylic words. Having noticed "chirrupy" and "syrupy", I thought a one-word-per-line verse was indicated.

Chirrupy-syrupy,
Ornithological,
Oligosaccharide:
Budgerigar.

Chickily, stickily,
Hydrophilicity —
Aerodynamically
Unwunderbar.

Happily, after a wash and a manicure, she was de-syrupped and flying once more. Somehow I think that she'll stay off the stickier fluids that ruin a budgie's coiffeur.
