The sun was only
A block from my house
When the pigeons
Started across the street
They always make it
So I gunned it
To keep them
On their pigeon toes
They took off in a flurry
But one with a crumb
Of something in its beak
Just didn't hurry...Bumph!

I saw feathers helter-skelter
In my rear view mirror
Like a pillow
Exploding under a dream

I had to dodge two doves this morning... but they had no fear and time to sit on the fence laughing at my poor Oldsmobile. *G* But it won't be spitting feathers all day! LOL

I love this one, sweets... it starts and ends with wonderful images... and I'll try not to think too much about the in-between. *G* Not thinking shouldn't be too difficult for me... right? *G*

My, you are creative!  Don't most people hunt pigeons with BB guns?

(giggles in delight) Uh oh, hope those pigeons don't start coming back with a vengeance now! (smiles) This is cleverly written, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Toerag, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton
