Paco Parrot

Some might say, "he was only a "bird

But that's not to us, a descriptive word!

 
Paco, was 'family,' for 31 years
So remembering him can bring on the tears.
Yes, tears of sadness, of course that is true
But also with smiles for all the things he would do.
 
He brought so much cheer, throughout all his days,
With his silly antics and charming ways.
He spoke like a human and made his needs known,
Bringing laughter, entertainment and joy to our home.
 
He made his own phrases,
 Calling me, "Mummy Dear."
He loved  his "PapaLou,"
 That was certainly clear!
 
You've left an empty space here, Paco!
How we miss you! And, yet,
We're grateful to have had you
And will never forget!
