Bridges and Balloons
We sailed away on a winter's day
with fate as malleable as clay;
but ships are fallible, I say,
and the nautical, like all things, fades
And I can recall our caravel:
a little wicker beetle shell
with four fine maste and lateen sails,
its bearings on Cair Paravel
O my love,
O it was a funny little thing
to be the ones to've seen.
The sight of bridges and balloons
makes calm canaries irritable;
they caw and claw all afternoon:
"Catenaries and dirigibles
brace and buoy the living-room --
a loom of metal, warp - woof - wimble."
And a thimbles worth of milky moon
can touch hearts larger than a thimble.
O my love,
O is was a funny little thing
to be the ones to've seen

Well there was a geo-electric storm 2 days ago at about 1pm EST (which just so happens to be when you posted this question). It can be responsible for everything from scrambled cellular signals to beached whales. If canaries are usually migratory birds, this would probably really screw up the magnetic deposits in their bodies and make them very iritable.

Change? My mom is the only odd bird I know. And she gets irritable at the drop of a hat.
