P'Haps A Li'L Bird Was Hungry



For days the parrots
visiting the guava tree
in the morn or at noon
left a little unripe fruit
beneath some shoots

eyeing the guava fruit in
my neighbour's garden
hanging on next to our balcony
'' alittle more ripe -
and tomorrow I will hve'
next day finding the fruit missing
she said ' perhaps a lil bird
was hungry..perhaps'
