Silverstein, Shel: Weird-Bird

Birds are flyin' south for winter.
Here's the Weird-Bird headin' north, -
Wings a-flappin', beak a-chatterin',
Cold head bobbin' back 'n' forth.
He says, 'It's not that I like ice
Or freezin' winds and snowy ground.
It's just sometimes it's kind of nice
To be the only bird in town.'
