Sense Sonnet - Steamer

Do Not Buy Me - LP Zoo

A Bali myna bird I be
Here at home in Lincoln Park Zoo.
In the Bird House come and see me
With white plumage and patch of blue
Found surrounding each of my eyes.
I weigh about three ounces and
About ten inches length in size,
A bird of beauty oh so grand.
The beauty of my kind has made
Us vulnerable to human greed,
Selling us in the cage bird trade.
Protecting us - there is great need.

You can help save us from this threat,
And never buy us as a pet.
