In vivid green
with turquoise hue
appeared a kingfisher
out of the blue.
So moved was I,
the sight I shared,
as it came nearer
into view.
‘If that’s a kingfisher,
I’m Brad Pitt’,
said the protagonist
by my side.
‘Ornathology not
your strong point, dear’.
So in silence
we continued the ride!
In vivid fear
of my next remark
in case this time
I spotted a lark,
so moving as it
ascended the sky,
with plumes of grey,
so sleek and dark.
My protagonist
now buried his head
in the centre fold
of The Times.
Thinking.’God help me –
how long must I endure,
this old bird
and her potty rhymes.’
