Fairy Penguin, your name is airy-fairy.
Fairy Godmother to you was unkind.
Your tiny little body must be very airish
in the chill New Zealand brine.
Yet you flap about quite airily
on the coast of the South Island fair.
But your cousins from Peru are handsomer than you,
in their tuxedos - so debonair!
