In the twilight’s embrace, where dreams take flight,

the Spix’s macaw, a jewel of the night,

with feathers of azure and a whispering song,

echoes through forests where it once belonged.

Spreading its colourful, feathery wings,

while flying through the night, the creature sings.

A beautiful lullaby flies out of its beak,

and its body shape, ever so sleek.

Landing on a thick tree branch,

near the lush green leaves does the macaw prance,

flowing moves as elegant as a ballerina,

claws gripping the branch as strong as a hyena.

Nestling in its little twig nest,

lying here for the night to rest.

Found cotton the very best,

here lies the bird from the west.
