Strange Bedfellows
Words by Leslie Noyes
I can’t get wet,
You don’t like the dry,
You lumber about,
I love to fly.
I dine on worms,
You feast on grass,
You’re quite large,
I’m just a little lass.
I’ve heard you bellow,
You’ve listened to me sing
I admire your ears,
You envy my wings.
You can’t build a nest,
I can’t capsize a boat,
You fear nothing,
I never learned to float.
We aren’t much alike
In our habits and ways,
Yet we manage to co-exist
For all of our days
Despite our differences
We share this earth
I’m your best friend,
And you’re my perch.
