Chasing Seagulls

Some humour for the day. The seagulls treat me like I'm here to feed them, even though I use tiny birdseed to feed the little birdies that visit my garden. The seagulls are relentless and aggressive. I look like a crazy person chasing them out of the garden, so that the little birdies feel safe to come back. Chasing seagulls By Michelle Morris 13/12/2022 Every day We play this game The seagulls come To torture me again They love my garden They love the seeds But they refuse to accept They're for the little birdies And try as I might They don't get the hint Chasing seagulls Seems to be a game for them I'm not intimidating I'm not violent I'm not big And I'm too kind Try as I might I can never harm One of God's creatures No matter their form So, like a crazy person I chase them out the garden My neighbours laugh At my strange behaviour Chasing seagulls Each and every day Repetitive madness Like Einstein said © Michelle Morris, 2022
