Premium Member In Search of a Great White Butt Ox
We embarked on an adventure That was quite quixotic A scientific dream quencher Searching for exotics We started where we thought made sense Out on the sunning docks Where perhaps there’d be an immense Native Great White Butt Ox We packed all of our photo gear And pursued the best sights But only found local Striped Rear Aglow in the moonlight Before being tempted to browse We jumped...

Premium Member There Stood a Great White Horse
I looked, behold, there stood a great white horse; Its rider had a lethal, silent bow. And on his head, a crown, rough-hewn and coarse, And there he went, a-conquering his foe. And lo, there came another horse, bright red; Its rider reaped the peace and sowed discord So great that people slew each other dead, And in his hand, a perilous...

The Great White Queen - a Poem For Imbolc
I dreamed of a Great White Queen, and she Came galloping through the snow 'I come for the one who called for me' Said she, 'did you call me?' 'No!'

The Great White North Can Relax Now
The great white North can relax now, The raptors lost their seventh game And like the other also rans… Go play some golf out on some greens. They gave it all a real good try But, Boston was the better team. Maybe next year they’ll better do After the trades they make are done. High game intensity they lacked… Needed a level much higher. While...
