Reddi-Whip
Here’s today’s New York surprise I witnessed with my own two eyes: Reddi-Whip, the cans amounted To nineteen (and yes, I counted!). Lined up on a bench, as well As underneath, and I could tell They all were empty, for the caps Were strewn around, by slobs, perhaps. There was no whipped cream residue And raindrops hadn’t sprinkled through, So with these clues, I did...

Premium Member GNRT DAY 23 WHIRLA-WHIP

What makes this treat so special and why we had to stop today is they have the only remaining original Whira-Whip machine in the entire USA. In the 1930’s...

Premium Member I Heard The Whip-Poor-Will sing
Down where the lavender wisteria blooms. For the first time this spring, and early in the morning I heard the whip-poor-will sing its intriguing tune. Later, when I looked out the kitchen window. Birds of many species were swarming freshly filled birdfeeders. House finches, red cardinals, and sparrows as well Doves upon the ground nibbled...

The Whip That Flogs The Devil
There’s a good man deep inside me though most could never tell, when I’m brawlin’ with the devil drinkin’ booze and raisin’ hell. Satan grins and taunts me it seems he won’t backdown, a good man wants to get free but the whip - it does come down! I knew I had a slim chance once things had gone awry to crack his whip with...

Premium Member Whip-Poor-Will Entertains
The whip-poor-will entertains. His song crisp and fresh today His voice is not inhumane. And leads my few thoughts astray. Running was the Bovidae Outside my open window.

Whip-Poor-Wills
In the Appalachian hill country there are night birds; they call to each other in the dark yet hunt alone. These birds are not owls but nightjars, they are known also as whip-poor-wills, goatsuckers, or bug-eaters by the locals. When they utter they shiver the ear-hairs of all that harken. When clinging to a tree trunk their dim mottled plumage makes then almost invisible. When they fly they fly...
