Jack Sparrow 033110

I found a little Sparrow
in a puddle on a stick .I thought he was a little greenhe looked a wee sea sick. 

 

He was so very dirtyand only had one eye,a broken wing, poor little thing,I guessed he couldn’t fly. 

 

So I took him home of course,much to the cat’s chagrin.And when he spied the huge bird bathhe promptly jumped right in. 

 

He was not the greatest swimmer,I hoped that he could float.He flopped around just like a fish,until he found my new toy boat. 

 

He’s now the Captain of the ship.And brother that’s a fact !I made patches for his eyeand aptly named him Jack. 

 

Jack Sparrow needs a second mateno cat, no dog, no ferret.Cause there ain’t nothing cuter,than a sparrow with a parrot. 

 

I put perches everywhere, little parrot holders.Always there right by his side, cause in fact Jack has no shoulders ! 

 

By Jove !
