Robert Laurence Binyon - The Cockatoo; From The ChineseRobert Laurence Binyon - The Cockatoo; From The Chinese
Work rating: Low


A present from tropical Annam, A bird with a human speech, A gloriously plumed cockatoo Rosy as the flower of a peach! And they did what they also do To the learned, the witty, the sage;-- Got a cage with the stoutest of bars And shut it up fast in the cage.
