Crazy old Ram McMutton
Built an empire out of cotton
Was a bit of a fool
Better to set up in wool
In despair began to weep
Lost his flock, the sheep
Went to competitor mr Wolf
Now graze on meadows for golf
Managed by a speckled beagle
Clear from people hitting an eagle
His wife, the lovely Ewe
Stops this poem now, leave

Was not sure if I should press Publish or Delete but I guess I’m fearless today. Ha de Gött!

Got to go

Got to go

You say I'm full of it
Now enough, I quit
Sat on my bench
Spread your stench
Flies buzzing around
You just making sound
Reading all the paper
Then reused it later
Now forever this is halted
By nature I am bolted

Today I came across an abandoned house and this outhouse. I just start to write and see where the words take me. Perhaps I need to see somebody… Got to go, ha de Gött!

Transition

Transition

Reflecting scrap stone
Put there long ago
Sharp and cracked
Past and present frame
Ice braking up
Melting in the sun
Spring is coming
Jack Frost yields
But not without a fight

Ha de Gött!

Buzzard

Buzzard

Soaring up high
Free in the sky
Detached from ground
Watching for prey
Elegantly upwind find
Scanning ground
Food or threat
Free or just hungry
Dinner chased away
I wish I could fly
She wish she could eat

This common buzzard (Buteo buteo) and its mate flies over me several times when walking in nature. To spite me they stay in the sun or behind trees so I can’t get a clear shot. This time I managed to get this okay shot of this fantastic bird.

Ha de Gött!
