Robert Louis Stevenson - 1850-1894

Last check before the parrot was taken outside
I forgot to add tomatoes to the beef. And I was told to put a 1/2 Of white grape juice in the Broth with an additional 3 T of crown royal and to omit the horseradish. We added one teaspoon of Anchovies oil to the mayo and crumbled in some sun dried tomatoes. That should be the show! Sweet banana peppers to do the...

Hey Lady You Know
{based on a classic joke} A lady briskly walked one day, To work, not far, just blocks away. She passed a shop with parrots near, When suddenly, she paused to hear-- "Hey lady!" squawked the feathered spy, She turned, confused, and met his eye. "You’re really ugly," said the bird. She gasped! "Did I hear what I just heard?" Fuming, off to work she...

The Parrot Who Knew Too Much
Perched up high, a nosy spy, a feathery fiend with a twinkling eye. Mimics whispers, spills the tea, squawking secrets recklessly! "Mrs. Jones wears curlers bright!" "Mr. Clark snores every night!" "Lucy kissed the mailman twice!" "Grandpa hides a stash of dice!" The neighbors glare, the house is tense, one loose beak, at their expense. Locked away, but still he crows-- "Wait 'til you hear what...

Why I love you
You are like a restless butterfly but you pick the flowers that are only true. That's why I love you. You are so joyful but don't collect friends like a fool and hunger for your own celebration on the Facebook zoo. That's why I love you. You love your country and an artist of its art, you are so possessive to protect and always keep...

Premium Member Bawdy Parrot Takes Over Zoom
Let’s have a family powwow on zoom. That way we’ll get to see the new bride and groom. Six households were ready to teleconference that day. A dancing parrot with a nasty mouth kind of got in the way. We had no idea this spoiled bird would be along. He wore a pirate hat and sang an awfully bawdy song. The...
