Sense Sonnet - Pumper

Sirocco

I'm Sirocco, a kakapo.
1997 I hatched,
Was raised by humans, doncha know,
To whom I became quite attached.
I recall this zoologist
Doing a film all about me,
A human I could not resist.
I hopped upon his head in spree.
This catapaulted me to fame.
I was more than just parrot rare.
Official spokesman I became,
Focus of a public affair.

For conservation, I appeal.
I squawk for New Zealand with zeal.
