They lay innocent,
sleeping in the gum tree.
Snoozing to bird songs,
as still as can be.
Crunching the leaves,
what a tasty treat!
Give it another bite,
it's all you can eat.
Stay still on it's branches,
blend in and lay low.
Don't be someones dinner,
Not an eagle or a crow.
How cozy that branch,
you fall straight a sleep.
You are absolutely silent,
not even a peep.
