Sweet little bird

My best friend

Killed by a cracker

Fed by my hand

© Dylan H., Phoenix, AZ

The author's comments:

My parakeet I received as gift quickly became my best friend. Whenever we moved houses, I lost his food and was terrified he was going to starve to death. I gave him unsalted crackers, and he choked on a piece too big for him. It was my fault.
