Imaginations
Imaginations… …Soars the skies With the fine Eagles …Paints the winds Red and sky blue …Watches the rising sun As she wakes fron the East …Tastes the grapes Along the green orchard …Dream a dream And believes in that dream …Rides the Wildebeest Across the Savannah …Fly kites Which turn out to be air planes…

Musing: Baby Chicken
The day’s hours go by fast. The sun makes everyone lazy. Then came two strange-looking birds, straying away from the hen brood to come sit beside me, ignoring their mother hen’s calls. Funny birds!
