The elegant sunbird’s a painting in oils
with feathers as glossy as glistening foil.
When it spreads its wings it also spreads delight
‘cause the Elegant Sunbird’s a rainbow in flight.

Thanks, Rhiannon. I can't understand why beautiful creatures like this end up on the endangered list. They're so much more important than many of the mundane, trivial things we fill our lives with. Glad you enjoyed it.

Oh look, a link. I wonder where it leads.
