I am called Wisdom and I be
The oldest wild bird that be known.
1951 - who hatched? Me!
Over three million miles I've flown.
...
I watch my comrades one by one,
Leaves leaving the limbs we have known.

Empty the clutter from my mind,
Let ills temporarily cease,
...
In my old age I like to take
A tub bath long and leisurely.
A special wall rack I did make
For liquors and mixes to be.
