she did not suffer fools gladly.
she had a little voice, but a big swagger,
and when she sashayed through the forest,
even the nearsighted moles stopped and tried to stare.
she was the first one awake each morning,
and the first one asleep each night.
basically she was awake from 5am to 10am
and conserved her energy the other 19 hours of the day.
it's why her walk was so strutty.
she lived on coffee, worms and the fears of her enemies,
and she never forgot what her mama told her the day she hatched:
"Be good, Tanya, but don't be too good...
the littlest birds sing the prettiest songs."
