Because just like frilly and free curiously whimsical the recently enlightened-yet-quietly- struggling-humble butterfly, resilient-grasshopper... daintily-grazing-dragonfly's locusts hung precariously low dangling-in small but honest-groups-spread-out-all-over-on-the-side and- cellar-door back-yard and front-porch-door... . Swaying gratefully on-the-ever-defiantly- flopping-innocently-broken-screens-that-again I tell-you... I thought, I had fixed... and-as- well-still-gripping whatever-kind-it-may be today the-birchbark-cherry-helicopter-seed, or- walnut-tree, awakening ever timely, still halfway wrapped-up-tight-in-their-warm-cocoons arriving now-from their-moments of-ponder... are told-too to have their-growing fancy... . The opportunity... virtuously... and ever-novelly, sweetly proposed, like-the-simple-and-ever- ominous-cry's of a whining filly, two dueling-fiddles three-squealing-unwary pigs... . Twelve gently-cackling-geese flying-over head fresh-little tiny-cooing-just-barely-naked-as-I- can mercifully-hear-now — and can tell, with-my-wife and scruffy-five-month-old-shepherd, and-steaming-cup-of-coffee in-hand — quite-hungry-and-wanted, black-crow-hatchlings-three chirping-blue birds-wailing-away-pecking-at-each-other all about-them... . Our-gracious fourteen chuckling chickens proudly parading their beauty off along to-us in full-view of their own-children's greater-innocence . My fiery haired fussy cousin small-fumbling baby girl tender angel newborn the precious eager sweetie suckling kneading away on my joyous... ever-willing and-new, three-times- over glorious-Mother-Aunties brilliant-supple-and-full... steadily-swelling-enflamed-dark-pink- nipple a mess-of basil-and-butter eggs-seven-sizzling-young and-healthy-catfish cooking-on- the-spit over the-open... and-lazily smoking-fire... . http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p7TrU4_-JTY&feature=related
