give me the green of feathers

thunder clouds
curtains of rain
turn day into night-
silence shattered
the grouse break cover...

The Famous Grouse

It’s my favorite whiskey
Grouse flying on the hill
On the hill
Where I am living.

Most delightful wood grouse
Striding so graceful

The elephant told the mouse
'I am sick of your grouse'
The mouse wagged its tail
Brought a bunch of cat's mail
'Look! all's written to your spouse'....

A grump and a grouse ran around town.
Griping and groaning, whining around.
So full of guff
We’d had enough.
Sent them to a circus to be happy clowns....

On a head, there lived a louse,
It was this itchy louse's house.
Mr Magoo was a mole,
Who lived in a deep, dark hole.
BANG! the head just shot a grouse!...

He was as meek as a little mouse

But his beak was as big as a house

So when a dozen crows

Nested way up his nose

Only then would he begin to grouse...

Three cats did share the same house.
Two sweet but one was a grouse.
Two got along great but the third t'was love/hate.
But there isn't a mouse in the house....

The mouse was swallowed by a grouse,
Hawk had the grouse for dinner.
One gunshot blast, the hawk was dead,
the mouse walked out the winner.

There once was a jovial baboon 
who loved to put music to spoon 
he came to my house 
quiet as a grouse 
until he pulled out his bassoon

There was a master French chef named Pierre
Who fancied himself quite suave and debonair __
   He once cooked a grouse
   Said: "It's on the house" -- 
Too bad the Cosa Nostra'd ordered bear...

A single shot while hunting ruffed grouse soaked my socks a deep sanguine against the snow.
A kiss to your broken lips glossed over the fine-looking lies we let slip onto the story of your indiscretion....

Voodoo Chili Blues
Hendrix is in the house
Hear my train a’comin
We are rocking too hard to grouse

Let’s set this guitar on fire!
And sing the Catfish blues.
Time is precious to this artist.
So young! His life to lose!...

Appears To Be Morose

Trump appears to be morose
Disgruntled and is really grouse
A real chip off the block
That ended up being a crock
And has often been bellicose.

Every path he is on always leads
to another war.

I haven't built a house.
Nor spread tarmac onto roads.
I have not shot a brace of grouse.
Or planting veg in rows.

I am sitting on a comfy chair,
Which my old body embraces.
I become exhausted,
When bending down to tie my shoelaces....

Sharp.
Cutting. Ouch!
Sharp writing, revered.
Sharpshooter. Wow!
Sharp-sighted. Flight cleared.
Sharp-tailed grouse.
Sharp-eyed mouse.
Sharp-witted, admired.
Sharp-tongue makes me tired.
Sharp-cut, defined.
Sharpish,
Sharpie
Sharp!...

Choose carefully a spouse
For your future rests highly upon her shoulders
Peace or grouse

Her cupid's dart
The love strike you cannot resist
In heart

Look guys
Past hormone's drive
Wise

Choose carefully a spouse
The love strike you cannot resist
Wise...

Vote for us, we’ll give you a house 
And you are not allowed to grouse 
It is just a masquerade
Empty promises made 
Your house might turn out to be for a mouse

Chill has filled the air
frost has formed upon the ground
leaves have begun to fall
aches and pains have settled in
I'm heeding nature's call

make way for the bear
the grouse, the blue tit mouse
It's time to disappear
let's hibernate 
and return again next year...

Trump went to church to prey today
The Collection Plate passed his way
Quick as an elf
He helped himself
"Only a fool gives cash away!"

So many people sit and grouse
Our POTUS is a lowlife louse
Let Trump emote!
Get out and vote!
"Trump goes potty at The White House!"...

Equal on both indebted was the house,
There was but one small difference:
They that had always nourished grouse—
And whose drive always tried to hop,
Floors boasted on truth from roof top,
Discreet foundation kept silence.
