ROCKET RED…
I love this little visitor that came today….so glad that I could get a good
shot of his beautiful eye……they are so shy that it’s hard to capture an
image sometimes.
I called this Rocket Red, because they remind me of a rocket zooming
erratically through the air…..and red of course for their gorgeous,
glorious red color.
Red Rocket, Red Rocket
You’re here then you’re there
Streaking red, flashing brilliance
You dance through the air…
Do you know when we watch you
That you’re a spectacular part
Of this great world of beauty
That gives wings to our heart?
THE EGRET AND THE IBIS
AND NOW IF YOU WILL ALL FORGIVE ME,
I WILL PROCEED TO TRASH AND MANGLE
POETRY AS WE KNOW IT….
(I mean no disrespect..I’m just no good at the technical bits)
THE EGRET IS A GRACEFUL BIRD,
CATCHING FOOD IN JUST A “BLINK”.
BUT YELLOW SOCKS CANNOT COMPARE,
TO “BOOTIES” THAT ARE PINK!
