The ‘caw’nthem

We had a huge tree a little away from our window. Crow visitors would often come to sing their anthem at food intervals.

I know you just saw
Me caw caw
Fresh food is all I’ll eat
Caw caw
Hot rice, some dal and a dollop of ghee
Don’t fob off yesterday’s rice on to me

Wait a sec, what’s that I
See Caw caw
Chappati just off the griddle
Caw caw
I prefer that with butter, oh add some more
Rice, dal and ghee can be quite a bore
