The Queen of Spring

It happened the first day of Spring: a cuckoo in drag tried to sing; the lambs and the chicks were getting their kicks by b*tching about all 'her' bling. The cuckoo was in for a shock; they pushed 'her' inside a big clock - 'she' pops out on springs, with bells on 'her' wings, and tells them, "It's creasing my frock." (the Soup censor won't let me post the word that begins with B and rhymes with witch) * they say it's Spring when you hear a cuckoo just a silly idea that came to mind for Carolyn's Spring contest

This was definitely the funniest entry in the contest, Jack. Had a good laugh reading about the "cuckoo in drag"! There were some wonderful entries in this category. Congratulations on your second-place win! Best wishes, Carolyn

You could always use the word witch and let it go most people's minds would go to the other word anyway. Thanks for the visits to my page. Sara
