There was a mother eagle
Who was trying to get some rest.
.
But oh no! Look behind her!
It’s a teenage raptor pest!
.
So she cuffed the juvenile in the head!
.
And left for parts unknown.
.
The kid, he was proud to have his own roost.
.
Until he realized that he was all alone..
Mom?
Mother??
Mommy?!?
