Cock Tales For Two

Sunny Saturday morning and

I saw the purple Hibiscus in our back yard,

We’ve set aside a special day.
We recognize others for their work 
And sometimes for their play;

There’s a day set aside for Mothers
And likewise for Fathers too;
I’m...

forget the fact that the
“prophecies” 
written in the “old testament”

because the writers of the

just created a character that
would follow suit,
like a badly written...

Palm Sunday

Shopping and hawking, 
purchasing and vending their wares; 
the observant noticed; 
the indifferent paid no mind; 
the powerful perturbed by all the noise
make their way to confront

Melting snow,
Cool breeze,
Crowded crows diving in a row,
Return of the unfriendly bees,
Colorful rainbow in the sky,
And the strange songs of the talkative parrot;
These are signs that Spring is around the corner.
Again, she has defeated Queen...
