Parliament

A Parliament of Owls
from the House of Commons flew,
And dive-bombed the rodents in jest.
While their plumes were crooked,
their flight was straight and true:
Right back to the rat-financed nest.

Fun fact: a group of owls is actually called a parliament.

Less than fun fact: I just wrote a poem about British politics!
If this keeps up, before long I'll be fat and old, drawing cartoons about Gordon Brown's foreign policy.

Wooooo.

Don't you just love a witty poem? Parliament by Nanook is quite crafty with her choice of words and imagery. Fantastic job!

You can't draw.

Or, at least, I assume not. Or you'd occasionally post drawings for the attention.

"Rat-financed": expenses scandal?

Fun poem, liked reading it, get the general gist if not the specific meaning of each line...

I already knew that about the owls.
