THE RAINBOW OF YOUR SMILE
For my dear, Monsieur Pistolet : 0)
“Everything in art depends on execution: the story of a louse can be as beautiful as the story of Alexander. You must write according to your feelings, be sure those feelings are true, and let everything else go hang. When a line is good it ceases to belong to any school. A line of prose must be as immutable as a line of poetry.”
― Julian Barnes, Flaubert's Parrot

WILL YOU STILL LOVE ME TOMORROW – AMY WINEHOUSE
Parrots are very social creatures
full-on colours and pretty features
loving and giving and bringing delight
perched on a branch or in full flight
I study them and think anew
of what we can learn and what we can do
smile at a stranger; give the gift of love
offer a helping hand like an angel above
They make me smile with their funny ways
these Rainbow Lorikeets prefer sunnier days
but they seem happy despite the rain; carefree
they love each other that is plain to see
Male and female are hard to tell apart
both are beautiful and warm my heart
she is on the left and he is on the right
it's easier to tell when they're sitting tight
The female has some yellow that mingles with the red
and the male one has the reddest breast and a squarer head
just then they turned towards me and them I am unsure
but does it really matter as long as they adore
They like to eat pollen and nectar and fruit
the male puffs up his rainbow suit
protecting his mate from the other parrots
so she can digest her food but she does not like carrots
They like apples and pears and grapes and sunflower seeds
some figs and nectar to fulfil their needs
papayas and mangoes opened by a fruit bat
make them smile inside like the Cheshire cat
I stayed with them for quite a long while
getting drenched but with a constant smile
and then sadly it was time to go
what a lovely experience; my dreams overflow.
