>> our family birdies have left us...
im feeling kinda sad now, cos both of our family pet birds left us simultaneously.
one of them died simply cos my father forgot to feed it water and food for the past 2 days. i feel guilty that none of us acually realised the bird was dying.
and to my horror, the other canary died this morning too, but prob not cos of food and water, but prob cos of old age. just couldnt understand why they left at the same time.
our canary has been with us for a very very long time, im rather sure at least 6 to 7 years, cos i still remembered i wrote a journal article on my bird back then during secondary 4 english lesson. for a bird, prob it would have reached 80 years old already i guess. my father dun really take very very good care of it, just changing the newspaper and feeding it normal food and water, its a miracle it didnt fall ill and die. the fact is, we acually had 3 other small ones and 2 of them died, yet this little canary lived longer den all of them............
its beautiful singing has accompanied us endless mornings, im really sad about the fact that it has left us.... its easy to get another canary, but its not easy to forget one that has been with us so long, one that broke one of its leg, became pai-kah, yet survived to sing for us again. though it hasnt been singing recently cos its really old, but at least we know its still there.
bye birdy... i hope we had been good owners all these years... we really could have been better.... thank you for your company.... i really hope if your ever become a canary again, pls come back to us.
we will miss u as our family pet.....


im glad i took a nice picture of you few months back.............. so we wont forget how adorable u are.
