Knock,
knock,
Where is
the peacock?
Knock,
knock,
Do not stop
the clock.
Birds a
flock,
Skies do
not block;
My dear
peacock,
Here I
unlock.
The freedom
is yours,
Your beauty
so pure;
One surely
endures,
Your smile
can cure.
Tick, tock,
There goes
the clock;
Flip, flop,
There goes
the rock.
Up on your
feet you go,
Spread your
wings high and low;
Nicely fix
your bow,
Make
friends and not foe.
Your tail
is magical,
I give you
score a double;
Showing off
to a couple,
Fulfilling
people’s whimsical.
Never ever
be a mock,
You are a
colorful peacock;
Come; let
me bring you for a jog,
You are
going to be famous in a blog.
You are my
Chinese fan,
I am your
number one fan;
I do not
think I can,
Give you a
ban.
You are
gorgeously made,
By
chemistry and fate;
I have met
her on the promised date,
This memory
will not fade.
You are now
my motive,
Promise me
you will stay active;
I am lucky
to have Aunty Kim,
She
tailored you in my kebaya so him.
If you are
smelly,
Do tell my
belly;
Do not be
sorry,
I made you
worry.
But first
you need some training,
Especially
on swimming;
You will experience
bathing,
I will not
leave you suffocating.
I will take
care of you,
For the
rest of my life;
You are my
companion so true,
You are the
light of my life.
It has been
a tiring day,
Let us call
it a day;
Go ahead;
sleep the whole day,
Today is your
day!
Close your
eyes,
Do not
think twice;
You are my
surprise,
You deserve
a prize.
Knock,
knock,
Do not shut
the door;
Knock,
knock,
I love you
more.
Do you need
your sock?
My dear
peacock;
Here I keep
you warm,
Do not be
frightened by the storm.
Sleep
tight,
I will wake
you after night;
Sweet
dream,
I thank
you, Aunty Kim.
