Shutters Clicking in a Tree

Byrds of a feather
flock together
but not often with a Bear.
Byrds of prey
shake their play
while berries and herb we share.

Unlikely companions
sharing directions
if only for awhile.
Wing of search
plus creature of earth
tromp the forest with style.

Boundries they pierce
together they’re fierce
unbeatable they can be.
Flight of a feather
makin’ hay out of Heather
as different as you are from me.

Talents to share
hot lunches beware
attitute in the woods, indeed.
A mid-morning romp
little creatures to chomp
laughter at the tourist’s we have treed!

Once upon a time, there were two trolls who hid under the various briges of the UC at Berekely campus...one of their favorite activities (other than grabbing co-eds ankles) was to tree various other nationality tourists.  Often wondered what the relatives back home thought of all those pictures of these snarling beasts teeth...

again circa 1989...

birds, bears, trolls, coeds, tourists, where is the damn goat baby, there is an even better way to deter the ankle grabbin trolls, stay off the bridge, or ride the goat. even better send a girls troll under the bridge. and that is mrs. troll to you baby.

Wanna grab my ankles sweetie, I love you baby
