Hello Ann,
I think this is very witty and skilfully put together. I enjoyed it a lot.
Best wishes, Mike

IT TAKES A LOT OF PLUCK
It must be a precarious
perch for poets,
trying to garrison
the watchtower,
whilst still having
to sing for your supper.
Unfeathered, off-key
you face them now
unfledged.
Shivering while the cats mew,
you must learn
new ways to fly.
I wonder,
will you survive
the winter's chill,
for song birds ruffle easily,
and no quill to use
but your own?
