Words can create magic and I want to get lost in them for some part of each day.

Kookaburra Gyms!

"A kookaburra(an Australian bush bird with a loud laughing voice) is undergoing personal training after growing too fat to fly because she ate too many sausages.The kookaburra got into trouble with her weight when residents at a Sydney park began feeding her sausages at barbecues."
(I promise I did not make this up-this is a TOI news item)

Kookaburra heavy, who can not fly
having a paunch and BP high.
Kookaburra lazy,Kookaburra fat,
go to the gym and learn to squat.
Strap a weight to each of your wings
Now breathe in and out a hundred flappings.
Laughter club will do you no good
If sausages are all you have as food
Were the perks not good as a bush bird
Making you migrate to a Sydney  suburb?
And take up waiting at Barbecues?
Greedy glutton-now pay your dues.
