Feathered Dinosaurs
The feathered dinosaurs
Chirped and sang ferociously;
Crying for a mate,
Warning off rivals
Claiming territory.
Their coloured plumage
A bold statement.
Talons gripping tightly
Their beaks a throwback
To the time when
Their huge ancestors
Strode boldly.
Do you see the Tyrannosaurus
In your chicken?
The stegosaurus in your wren?
But yes,
The dinosaurs did not all die
They walk, and fly, again!
