a flicker...

...portrait

right outside the door

that’s right - i knew i wasn’t - going far today - still not feeling well - so i was going - to check out the - community garden to see - if there were any bugs - or flowers yet - and upon stepping out - the door i was greeted - by this flicker - i mean there - he was sitting there

a rare thing in my neck - of the woods really - i do see them flying by - on occasion but lounging - in the grass like - this is simply odd - it’s like it was a gift - from abba himself to me - because i wasn’t feeling well - and who am i to pass up a gift - especially one which is - a bird, nope not me - so quickly i snapped - and no sooner had i done - that than said bird glanced - over at me - and flew off - like he knew - yup, that’s made it...

a

happy day.....
