A limerick
Proud as a peacock, Birdie puffed out her chest.
For her little chickies, she'd have only the best!
Regardless the weather,
She'd keep herself in fine feather;
So, her human pet would feather their nest.

Let’s write poetry together!
When it comes to partnership, some humans can make their lives alone – it’s possible. But creatively, it’s more like painting: you can’t just use the same colours in every painting. It’s just not an option. You can’t take the same photograph every time and live with art forms with no differences.
–Ben Harper (b. 1969)

I’ve never heard of peacock or pea hen with a human pet.
This is a very interesting turn of events.
It’s all a matter of perspective, isn’t it? Who owns whom?
Our pets literally owns us, that is true.
This is an unusual relationship though, but an interesting one.
