No number of letters strewn 
can fairly capture
the glory of pure unadulterated hope

in the face of total loss

Morning 4

Crestfallen morning
Terror shoot in Florida
Whole mankind benumbed

Perking up Florida gladly

On the lawn, one final chomp

With fronds as pretty as can be

Blowin' and peein'
And now there's nothing else to see

Awaiting the geese
Yet, with pink surprise, toothpick
legs of flamingos walk proud

it's a special shade of green;
Everything lit up;
the Sun's smile fans it higher, 
creating envious eyes.

And a Florida judge is annoyed

Shifts the blame to an FBI droid

Florida fear runs unopposed.

Who chanced upon young Master Baitor

Pheromones floated
When traipsing by came May B. Layder

But one from less high,
And eat it, I really don't wanna.

We had an apartment in Florida
Where a woman just down the corrida
Kept a pet gator
Which unfortunately ate her
Can you imagine anything horrida ?
