I'll wring his neck!
That noisy bird
4 in the morning
It's so absurd
Right on the clock
So dark at 4
He makes his noise
My head's so sore
"I'll wake them up
Those lazy birds
They scream at me
Such spiteful words"
So scream he does
And calls his group
They all fly in
Support the troop
I wait till 5
They fly away
But noisy bird
Will always stay
I creep till near....
He's about to rest
I bellowed "YOU TWIT"
He fell off his nest!
I wrote this poem after reading Relic's A Bird Overhead and Robert Haigh's Insomnia. Not sure where Noisy Bird and his supporters will fly to next month but I don't think he goes to Europe or the US!

Blimey, that drawing is the ex mother-in-law to a tee.
I know how you feel about those pesky birds, to combat exterior noises i use a bedside radio to create a more acceptable diversion.
Haha! My apologies for the drawing. The radio would have to be very loud maybe heavy rock music to drown out Noisy Bird at 4am! Thank you for your comments.
So, a bird in the hand is getting buried in the bush. I just hire an eagle, works wonders.
I would love to hire an eagle - address please! Thank you.
We have an 'enthusiastic bird'
issue in our house as well, lol
fun read, thanks for sharing
Thank you for your comment.
That’s really funny
Yep birds can be annoying especially at odd hours
You really made me laugh
How well was your inspiration
Keep writing my dear friend
Hope to read more of your magic
Thank you very much for your comments.
Dear Teddy, Thank you for your lovely comments. This morning I read Relic’s poem A Bird Overhead. This afternoon I read Robert’s Insomnia. I think my Noisy Bird is full of mischief and enjoys torturing us! Totally unlike the robin.
I come from the island of Penang in Malaysia, a tropical country. Migratory birds fly across Malaysia to escape the cold. But this bird could be a local fellow. I will find out more. Good night - need to sleep a few hours before trouble starts!
Loved this, your poem cheered me up on a miserable day. Thanks for the laugh.
Thank you.
Sounds like you got even lol. A delightful write on an otherwise gloomy day🙂
Thank you! He'll be back!
I identify with this mutchly - here in 'stralia we suffer from a bird, a koel by name, which drives me nuts in, I think, Spring. A real pain in the ...um...err.... eardrums. Wrote about it here many moons ago,
Can't be the same bird as this one is a single bandit.
Your poem cheered me up - nice to know I'm not the only one who suffers........
Haha! Thank you. A suffering shared is a suffering halved?
Doubt it, but I feel less lonely.....
Maybe I am weird but I love hearing birds at dawn, no matter what time dawn is, generally hear in the UK the first bird to sing is the robin. It is also the last bird to sing at night.
Good fun write Rozina.
Andy
Thank you. I just googled the sound a robin makes - it sounds pretty, musical. The Noisy Bird makes an awful noise! One man’s noise is another man’s music?
quite simply lovely .. nah .. much more even than just that .. made me mouth spread sideways and up into a very broad smile ........................ N 🙂
Thank you.
Birds are lovely . If they annoy us , they don’t mean to . Can be annoying to be woken up by them , I guess … especially if it’s so early ,
I love hearing birds tho
Dear yellowrose, Thank you.
