They were all out standing in their field
with an ass or two and a few moose
along with a stray Canadian goose
when someone let the Appaloosas loose
not a welcome sight nor pretty view
while the moose who cud did slowly chew
the well-trained colt did not bolt
or even buck to shuck us
the goose didn't give a honk or hoot
but the asses kicked up such a ruckus
and if mushrooms you have half a mind
to seek (not the magic kind of stalk)
be aware take care of where you walk
as there by the end of the week let me remind
the field was knee-deep if not chock-a-block
with what the livestock left behind
A gander ponders
To V or not to V
A gaggle giggles
Principle's of space,
prosperity in grace,
property for punctually pontificating the pronunciation of the alien race-
A laughter so adorned it's grate!
Slaughter of the new age-
...and your daughter-
40 years from reaching the 4th grade,
what a wild cahoot all because of the heart of spades-
...because this is just my face,
this is astonishment and be-gorgeous courageousness!
This is fauna and flakes and forgiveness,
one done for another two trips to the store for your mother,
why ride when you can collide with anybody who's under?
Are we, really from the Sea?
Because we are adapted to this lanky sort of breed-
the land and the forest and the deserts unite inside,
like reckless looting,
drowning down like a likeness that can flurry with thunder-
as the news breaks the stalling core,
the new found movement can now count, and recount a time that I didn't groove?
Honk if you love sex, the sound would be deafening
Not much chance the honking would start lessening
By the grins on your kissers
And the stroking of your whiskers
It's brightens your day and was really refreshing

geese honk surround sound
spring's emissary head north...
invisible ghost
For PD
On Saturday I could hear Canadian Geese
honking while inside the house..I walked
out to see them and it was like surround
sound on a stereo almost as if they were
in the trees but I could not see a goose
anywhere..Sign that spring is here though.
