High Noon Noel
Clean the gutters
hang the lights
watch the flutters
in jaybird flights
squirrels and Yule nuts
by the frosty yard
wiggle wee furry butts
in stashing them so hard
and then the little tits
come and go so fast
it's hard to scan the plumage flits...
wherever they've amassed.
hang the lights
watch the flutters

wiggle wee furry butts
in stashing them so hard
and then the little tits
come and go so fast

The Turkey Bird Song
We love meaty, big plump birds
They gobble and rarely fly
On the chopping block it goes
Don't feel sorry, no need to cry
Pluck it's feathers make it smooth
Spread cranberry sauce like sap
Spread its legs for stuffing
Leftovers galore for a midnight snack
Wings are Flappin
Necks are Snappin
Turkey Slappin
If you haven't heard
This bird is the word
A feast fit for a king
Nothing more this bird can sing
He gobbled his way into our hearts
The only song we have, are these loud, smelly farts
They gobble and rarely fly
On the chopping block it goes
Don't feel sorry, no need to cry
Pluck it's feathers make it smooth
Spread cranberry sauce like sap
Spread its legs for stuffing
Leftovers galore for a midnight snack
Wings are Flappin
Necks are Snappin
Turkey Slappin
If you haven't heard
This bird is the word
A feast fit for a king
Nothing more this bird can sing
He gobbled his way into our hearts
The only song we have, are these loud, smelly farts

Baby Birds Bound
Beneath the black rainbow shadows hide
in the space where dreams and fears collide.
Balls and globes, spinning in the dark,
soap bubbles reflecting a fleeting spark.
A spectrum shrouded in an eerie hue.
Unseen colors in a night’s dew.
Not ready to fly, grounded wings,
bound by the weight of untold things.
In the silence echoes of tomorrow
wrapped in a cocoon of quiet sorrow.
The black rainbow, a solemn arc,
marking paths through the uncharted dark.
Fragile hopes like bubbles rise
yet fall back not...
in the space where dreams and fears collide.
Balls and globes, spinning in the dark,
soap bubbles reflecting a fleeting spark.
A spectrum shrouded in an eerie hue.
Unseen colors in a night’s dew.
Not ready to fly, grounded wings,
bound by the weight of untold things.
In the silence echoes of tomorrow
wrapped in a cocoon of quiet sorrow.
The black rainbow, a solemn arc,
marking paths through the uncharted dark.
Fragile hopes like bubbles rise
yet fall back not...

Purples
Nature's best musicians sing
Over lakes and ponds and streams
Sweet and salty waters hum
My guitar strings gently strum
Let the melody of worlds
Convey her gentle sound through you
Drown in deep blues
Sing in strong reds
So that you might live in purples
Follow singing rivers ahead
Go where no man's ever tread
Stay until you lose yourself
Stay until you lose your self
Over lakes and ponds and streams
Sweet and salty waters hum
My guitar strings gently strum
Let the melody of worlds
Convey her gentle sound through you
Drown in deep blues
Sing in strong reds
So that you might live in purples
Follow singing rivers ahead
Go where no man's ever tread
Stay until you lose yourself
Stay until you lose your self

Love...elusive
Love met me
at my heart's doorsteps
She was like a bird
feathered in red
at my heart's doorsteps
She was like a bird
feathered in red

Picture Texas
Texas Bluebonnet you fill my horizon like the sea.
As you dance and sway in the cool spring breeze.
Mockingbirds sing and woodpeckers peck.
As the horn toad lizard scurries for ants.
Banana spiders weave and cicadas that chirp.
Wild blackberries that taste so delicious it hurts.
Choices of oak, pecan or mesquite as firewood to barbecue meat.
These are just some of the joys that I see.
When I stop and glance at the things around me.
As you dance and sway in the cool spring breeze.
Mockingbirds sing and woodpeckers peck.
As the horn toad lizard scurries for ants.
Banana spiders weave and cicadas that chirp.
Wild blackberries that taste so delicious it hurts.
Choices of oak, pecan or mesquite as firewood to barbecue meat.
These are just some of the joys that I see.
When I stop and glance at the things around me.

My friend Mr.Crow
While on my way
I everyday,
Fed a crow some seeds,
Only today
It flew away
Before I could reach.
Saddened, I carried on
Then heard a sudden peck
Ah! It's the crow
& in its clutch, a trinket!
I everyday,
Fed a crow some seeds,

It flew away
Before I could reach.

Then heard a sudden peck
Ah! It's the crow

Hallowed Firmament
When I describe in glowing terms
September skies that I've adored,
I thought them heavens, best explored,
with what an aspiration affirms...
betokened so by cirrus white,
so thin adrift among the blue,
mingling with the contrail spew
long after jets are out of sight.
These things define that vast expanse
over a leafy sunset gold
to contrast with autumnal cold...
enough to switch from shorts to pants.
Then watch the hummingbirds alight,
just for a moment, on a twig;
thin adrift in a sky so...

I hate this bird
Last summer I was in my pool when a rooster arrived
Two doors down he would crow with pride
In my town, it's illegal to own
Constantly crowing, I picked up the phone
Authorities came, the owner was fined
Situation continued, nothing rectified
Endless noise throughout the year
How much more will I need to hear?
Every morning he woke me up around five
One day I paid a visit, shot him, and he died
Two doors down he would crow with pride
In my town, it's illegal to own
Constantly crowing, I picked up the phone
Authorities came, the owner was fined
Situation continued, nothing rectified
Endless noise throughout the year
How much more will I need to hear?
Every morning he woke me up around five
One day I paid a visit, shot him, and he died

A girl, two birds, some candy & a very large cat
Once upon a time a little girl was going to take her doll for a walk when there she was, meeting two nice little birds
She dropped them a pretty little bow and said to them,
"Good afternoon, little birds, will you play with me?"
"I have some lovely candy in my little bag"
"I'll give you some"
One of the birds said, "I have no objection"
and the other said, "Neither do I"
They enjoyed themselves very much until it was nearly evening
Then the little birds said, "We want to go away now" ...

Peck On Somebody Your Own Size
Out of all the birds I love to sit and observe, doves are my favorite.
One day a dove perched itself on an electric line above my head, as I'm sitting there talking to it like it completely understands what I'm saying, a hawk swooped in from out of nowhere and clutched the bird in its beak, I screamed in horror, nooo!!
I mean, I get it, the food chain...blah blah blah.
But what the crap?
I learned a valuable lesson that day.
Don't distract the natural flow of nature, doves were not meant to chat with humans, no matter if they cooed in return to your every word...

Bird-Dog
I've been living in a tree
with a three legged dog
to keep me company.
He lies by the fire and wags his tail
to the smell of burning leaves.
There's a ladder to the ground
going halfway down
so I'm never sure what's coming
and though he loves to go for walkies
he doesn't do much running.
He couldn't chase a cat
or fetch a tennis ball
but he likes to sniff and pee
and to get back in the tree house
he clambers on his knees.
He'll eat a bird for...
