STORY STARTER

Write a story from the perspective of an immortal pet as it is passed down through a family's generations.

Gold Cage

As I sit on the outside tree, in the breezy jungle I eat

Clutching this weather beaten branch, with my feet

Piles and piles of leaves lay below me, for my to lie

Protecting myself all alone here, surviving not to die

Soon I hear different kinds, of human noises coming near

A unseen white net covers my life, blocking sight and hear

This will make a great pet, for the baby little one they said

They put me in a huge gold cage, right next to the tiny bed

When the sun rises I start to sing, and talk to my new friend

The baby coos and giggles, as we start to play never to end

As we both grew up and learned the ways, of human life

I flew along side her, when she went to school with strife

I was there with her, when she graduated with a huge smile

Flying around the tabernacle, seeing cap and gowns for miles

Now she is off to start her new life, taking me and my gold cage

I still have all my beautiful feathers, as I the parrot don’t show my age

Years have passed, and she is now starting a brand new family now

So I sit in my gold cage, waiting for the new baby and to show her how
