Pelicans/ Shakespeare/ Dixon Merritt
A wonderful bird is the pelican
His bill will hold more than his belican.
He can take in his beak
Food enough for a week,
But I’m damned if I see how the helican.
~Dixon Lanier Merritt
O! for a horse with wings! ~William Shakespeare, Cymbeline

Gosh I keep discovering more and more here. I guess I don’t have to worry about running out…although I DO like those poignant poems you write. So, we agree then, right? You HAVE to write more!! LOL See you have a following now….ME!!! and of course many more. This too is a wonderful site. I have no idea how you manage all of them. I can hardly manage one with all the work I have as well. Although I think of turning at least part of mine or some posts into a photo blog. Maybe a new category…not sure yet. Hope you are happy and seeing the sunrises. I saw it this AM and was in heaven!!! Hugs, R
