This poem is a "New Age" Nursery Rhyme. I love the aew of the children and attempt to capture it with verse.

Oh For Gooseness Sakes ...
A New Age Nursery Rhyme
Splitter splatter geese a gaggle...walking in the rain
Tail to sashayed feathered tails...lined up like a train
Bouncing downy white and waddling...clicking and a clacking
Freight-trained goosies splashing -- laughing...mud prints just a tracking
Honking orders in the storm marching to the lake
Clearing those that venture...charging...oh for 'gooseness' sakes
Feeding time out in the lake just ahead of thunder
Loud and boisterous gaggles echo, is there any wonder?
Brave and challenging...poking fun...daring each raindrop
Up-turned long necks drink their fill...sipping as rain hops
Storms are tilt-a-whirls to geese...amusements for their laughter
Funny orange-beaked silly goosies...happy ever after.
a gander of a write (no pun intended!)! :) LOL (((HUGS))) love, your texas friend, karen lynn. :)
