The pirate limped across the deck's floorboards
in pain he sought the cage that hung from rope.
He cooed and called his pet for food reward.
In bill that grabbed a cracker lay a feast.
She nibbled and ate and cleaned her colored face.
and then screamed out
"Is that all you got for me?"

Hahahha funny
I have always wondered about having a bird that talked like that this is so funny

Hmm. I like the wording, the imagery, and think it's actually good humor. Don't really get how it relates to Polly, but I think she'd like this... I do. Thanks for your entry.
