Cat vs. Cowbird

Brown-headed black bird
Comes right up to the window—
Charlie whomps the glass.

This blackbird:
Some may say he’s not
That pretty
But I think
With his sleek teal head feathers
He’s a real cracker!

found a dead
blackbird at bottom
of garden
not long gone,
still warm, shame to have to put
it in the garbage
