The Shuttlecock

Title:     The Shuttlecock
Author: Carolyn Wells [More Titles by Wells]

The Shuttlecock's a handsome fowl to see,
His feathers grow straight upward like a tree.
He cannot crow, but oftentimes his flight
Will reach up to a most astounding height.
He is a gamecock, and, in fighting trim,
There are not many birds that equal him.

[The end]
Carolyn Wells's poem: Shuttlecock
