Why you should never clean your windows...



I was just relaxing
Enjoying my reading
While a robin outside
Was flying and tweeting

The weather was warm
Everything was so swell
Until I heard a smack
Then things weren't so well


That bird hit the window
I saw feathers splatter
I was almost surprised
That the glass did not shatter

The poor wounded robin 
Lay gasping for air
So I rang the police
But they did not care

Then I called up a friend
And she calmly said "hey,
This happens a lot
The bird will be okay"

And sure enough 
It got up off the ground
For a second just stood there
Not moving around

It was kinda creepy
I'm not gonna lie 
But I no longer feared
That the robin would die

So I turned away 
It was time to move on
And when I looked back
My dear robin was gone.

Lint

Where do you come from
Little belly button lint?
I find you all the time!
Can you please give me a hint?
Are you planted by small elves, 
Trying to make me cray?
Sending me a message
To shower everyday?
It's an unsolvable mystery
Unlike any other
It clogs my favorite body part
And certainly's a bother 
Please tell me why this happens 
I can't go on not knowing
Until then my belly button
Will look like it is snowing!
