Wrong Language

Polly had a pet parrot She wanted to teach to talk The parrot didn't want to As parrots only squawk Polly was frustrated With her stubborn parrot friend She was very persistent Sure of winning in the end Polly faced the parrot And started to talk The parrot bit her on the lip Which made poor Polly SQUAWK!

Hel Shirley, It seems that the parrot had a mind of its own. He or she did not want to llearn another language. Hugs. \Darlene
