Who ate walnuts putting his fist in,
The nutmeat was tight,
But he put up a fight,
And got at the food with some twistin’.

Rainbow Lorikeets
It’s limerick month. I won’t necessarily do one a day, but maybe every second day or so.
Two lorikeets in Lover’s Lane,

His eyes close in love
As he coos from above,
And she whispers, “Oh, say it again!”

Dogwood in spring.

peeling hazelnuts
filled with anticipation
what a happy day
Pardon Me?
Happy Thanksgiving to all my friends and family in the U.S.
And here we have some Montana turkeys,
looking for presidential pardons….
turkey dinner looms
can we get a pardon soon?
then we will give thanks
Roo
thinking things over
just lying here in the dirt
it’s too hot to move
Sunset
day’s excitement done
quiet sun sinks into sea
rest now, be at peace
