KISKADEE © gillena cox 2018
Kis ka dee, kis ka dee, her bright yellow underbelly
strikes sunlight into the dullest morning.
She calls again kis ka dee, kis ka dee,
What is she saying, she is singing her name.
After cock a doodle doo
Clouds loose their grey hue
Brightening under an azure blue
Kis ka dee, kis ka dee she is singing her name.
