The crow saw me and on cue
On a high line wire it flew
But I paid it no never mind
Never thinking of a crime
The sun was shinning bright
Not thinking of my plight
I passed beneath the crow
Bombs away there she blows
Splat on top of my head
And down my cheek it bled
I've a surprise for him
My Smith & Wesson is grim
He returns to that wire today
Tonight in my fryer he'll pay.

LOL...crows are such unique individuals...
in fact, I'm reading [finishing] the book
IQ84...and a crow figures in it with distinction, but I'm not sure of the author's reasoning, just yet.

Good chuckle. Thanks!

Yes, Karilea, I have picked on the pesky birds for years in my poem. They deserve it.

"I passed beneath the crow

Now that's priceless!
Excellent write, Jerry.
Enjoyed the story.

But, dear Jerry, that was a blessing ... and I bet the crow was quite satisfied by having centered you (here it is considered good luck ...). So you might want to change your intentions and try your fortune.

Smiles.

Too late dear Margherita, but maybe the next time I will try your thoughts.
