A Bearded Birdhouse

Housecleaning….
Once upon a bearded birdhouse 
Socks had been hung out to dry.
He was shaking out the rug
When dust got in his eye.

He cried to his momma
He cried to his pop.
Nothing they tried
Could make the pain stop.

Along came a pretty lady
With a hop, hop, hop.
She spotted the tiny tear
And decided she must stop.

She kissed the wet cheek
She pecked the wet ground.
Up popped a juicy worm
Which she quickly found.

They all had dinner
Their dishes wiped clean.
The dust eventually settled
A tear was nowhere to be seen.

This is not a true story
Just a bit of nonsense
About a bearded birdhouse
Filled with incense!
