Hanging upside down, in a nearby tree
Is a cuckoo bird, and he’s on an eating spree
Gobbling down Rambutan, delightfully sweet
He can’t get enough, so he uses both feet
As well as his beak, to stuff them all in
When suddenly, above him, his tail does spin
He tries to be cool, but his wings start sprawling
Usually what happens, when the cuckoo’s falling

Cool! I’ve never seen one before. Guess that’s why they are named “Cuckoo”.

Have you ever seen a roadrunner? They’re part of the cuckoo family as well as a few others! 😃

If it’s not too taxing. I’m pulling away from prompts to give myself a break. Have had a rough go lately.

It’s not really a prompt. It’s just 2 quotes about expression. I’m sorry to hear things have been rough. Rest, my friend. Take care of you. ❤️
