Inside the aviary net
of the double W
Zoo,
a nut,
with but for the feather
of a wedge-tail eagle,
his considerable holiday collection stuck
in the hat band of his Aku*,
was looking down
for more to stick
and saw a child
photography nut
looking up
boldly taking his pic.
A poet with a penchant
for foot rhyme,
he said you can't be happy with that,
here! have a close up of the hat.
