Big Bird

 

Big Bird
Having something whimsical in my house is fun,
It makes me smile and is not hurting anyone,
I have found that a certain bright yellow chair,
Has given me the quirkiness that I want to share,
Not the most comfortable chair in the house, but just the same,
It is majestic looking, with a broad back and statuesque frame,
Mid-century modern is its style,
I call it “Big Bird”, and it makes me smile,
Bright? Yes, bright. A real attention-getter!
A throne, of sorts, couldn’t get much better,
My regal yellow chair may seem over-the-top for some,
But I like the uniqueness of it: for me, it’s pure fun!
The color of a happy faced emoji; a constant reminder,
Big Bird is not certainly a one-of-a-kinder,
But it’s my big canary in the form of a chair,
And you can’t buy smiles just anywhere!
If you chance to drop by, say hi to Big Bird,
You can’t miss seeing him; He’s absurd!
