Asparahawk

I am Asparhawk, fastest in the sky,
I go to a nest, which is mine.
Feasting on peaches forever
I never get sick, never ever.
I know it’s weird, but that’s what you’ve seen.
Please whatever you do,
Don’t think we’re mean!

Asparahawks live in the trees,
With monkeys and wasps and bumblebees.
As all of you can see,
We hide as the predator goes by,
We shriek and squeal. . . Oh my!
We are very alert
In case someone tries to eat us.

* * *

Sorta skinny
I hate to be stealthy
My skin is greeny
I am very slimy!
I have a million cloves but of course,
No clothes!
Vegetarians don’t want meat
It’s the asparagus they want to eat!
