A loon with a spoon
and a beribboned robin
cadged a barred cage
for a bird with a bobbin.
A wren and a hen
set up shop in the moon,
where they peddled green cheese
to the spectacled loon.
The cheese was a gift
for the newly caged bird,
who declared all such kindness
distinctly absurd.
As for the loon
and the robin with ribbons,
they’ve been tarred and feathered
for acting like gibbons.
