Do Birds Know?


Do birds know I am listening to them sing?

Do trees know I am cooling myself in their shade?

Do flowers know I am sniffing their fragrance?

Does the sun know I am warmed by its light?

Does the earth know I am on my way there?

    Song: Hollywood Adaptation
    [For Roald Dahl]

    Whistling through his whiskers
    Dashing Mr. Fox
    Charms with wily whispers
    Chicks who go for hipsters
    Loving life’s hard knocks

    Longing to fly the coop
    Daunting Mrs. Fox
    Decides to stir the soup
    Jazzing up her croup
    So cool she really rocks

    Cockatoos chew blues
    Mourning melancholy
    Birdland breaks taboos
    Both Foxes hate to lose
    In bitter alimony
