Not for the Birds


Magpie, be silent and listen— 
How many times 

Have you not heard this one?

  1. beautiful, Vassilis

    cloud cracked dawn breaking in here

    Zen crow singing
    to remind us
    of silence

  4. Thanks, friends, for joining in this "twitter" session--another friend (Tom Clark) also commented but his never appeared for some reason known only to Blogger.

  5. And only Blogger knows its reasons. Have you not heard this one? The Blogger anthem? Sung by the magpie, Pica pica googlensis?

    We have no rhyme
    We have no reason
    And if you think things are going badly now
    Just wait till next season

  6. Woe is me, I have to say
    I did not hear it afore today

    But hark! Out of Googledom’s
    Kingdom dark, a lark named Clark

    Hath come and swept
    My suffering away.

  7. Thanks for "chirping" in, Cassandra; unfortunately, the Rives "Mockingbird" link failed to materialize.
