a fleider-ing mouse
is good luck....
in your house
twittering, skittering,
weaving and bobbing........
take joy in his life
(you needn't run, sobbing....)
one more of nature's miracles....
to celebrate, with lyricals
....to gaze with wonder
and with awe,
cherish his presence,
he has no flaw.....
Bats,
I've many, in my belfry....
they've made me glad....and very wealthy...
no, not with riches to be counted,
of the sort so often flaunted....
but... the kind that bring a tickle,
gentle whispers, playful, wiccal
in the truest sense.....with love
for all Dog's critters.......earth, sea.... above
Do pardon me my lack of scansion.....
just open the window........ I must fly from this mansion
and take to the wind, though it's mid-afternoon....
come dark I'll be flyin' past the face of the moon
delilah contrapunctal.... yes, that's how I intended to spell it.........

Bats are very beneficial. If I go to a well-lit parking lot neara my house during the summer, I see them devouring insects attracted to the lights. Um. I haven't figured out why the insects are bad.
You made me spew gin through my nose. It may benefit my sinuses, but I worry about my keyboard.
As always, your fantastic imagination and humor provide the reader with a sense of deja vu. Didn't I see you in Elko? = Will |

I truly love this and the last line is best of all. My favorite halloween poem too. |
