It is not a nationality, in
fact, some are blow ins.
They are migrants, just
here for nectar & honey.
They mate with natives
breed like buds and go.
Yet they bring colour &
blossom harvest & fruit.
Swallows arrived, what
pestilence do they have.
And the Cuckoo, another
unworthy, I’m not a racist.
But, we are an island, our
own birds, shoot them all.
