The bird that lives with my family,
A mynah called Sam Morse,
Is costing us a bundle
Because it eats like a horse.
At the other money end,
And this may sound absurd,
My brother Roger's horse
Eats just like a bird.
Yes, animals are strange
And have been from the start,
Immune to simile
And declining to play a part.

yes, animals are strange...I had a cat once that would chirp like a bird sitting on our back porch, which was high up in the trees. It seriously wanted to communicate with the birds.
