the worlds of pteri bird

i am a pionus parrot,
life is good.
my people treat me
exactly as they should.
they love me, play with
me, feed me well.
i am one happy baby,
as you can tell.
yet in my heart
there is another place.
a lush, warm garden,
a jungle space.
but my parents were
born here,
my grandparents, too.
this is my life,
this what i do.
no predators to chase me
i am almost never
caged in.
though not in freedom,
i wear a big parrot grin

I am a proud senior, forever hippie, who has incorporated the peace and love vibe into the technosphere of the 21st century. Gratitude and love of all beings is what I live for and how I live. My husband and I are guardians of pteribird in heaven and magic Mikey a special needs senior parrot, whose intelligence and love is beautiful and humbling. Blessings
