Ground fenced becomes a fall garden
deterring squirrels' and rabbits' play.
Guard the soil that winter will harden
defeating Indiana clay.
Gilded tulips (unsightly bulbs' pardon)
deserve a diadem come May.

Unexpected, no less bucolic,
between the slabs of buildings,
surprising morning rooster crowing!

in violet dawn
he screeches a world awake
barnyard bugler struts
the sun is coming
and he's the first one to know
blooms and butterflies
red rooster so bold
like desert cactus flowers
and amber at noon

Let me tell you of something happening years ago:
It was in Atlantic City at the Playboy Hotel and Casino.
A redhead guy was at a craps table inside this joint.
He crowed like a rooster each time he made his point.
I said to him: "In case you did not know,
the sun came up seven hours ago".
Inspired by a comment I made to one of Caren Krutsinger's poems.

At what point exactly ?
Is one entitled to call oneself a poet ?
Is it when you think you have written something noteworthy of consequent ?
Or a critic adversary or peer referring
to a work by name not with disdain ?

The glass is always full-Rooster's A Crowing
On a garden bed
consumed hens undress wry smiles
to the roosters crow

The Cock is Crowing
inspired by the next door neighbor's rooster
By Franklin Price

The cock raises his crowing head
Lets the er,err,errr right out
If he was a person
Good Morning!! he would shout
Not afraid to speak his piece
As politicians that we hear
The cock enjoys the sound he makes
Letting hens know that he's near
The cock has plans for all the hens
As politicians do for you
He'll convince them one by one
They will enjoy what he will do
Cocks and politicians
Both crow, that is their game
The hens and the constituents
End up very much the same
