He’s all that
and that
bag of chips,
one for his shoulder
and one for his bright-eyed tail.
He’s turquoise
and turned,
poised and ready
for his runway show,
decked out in his finest feathered trails.

and prejudiced
to think he’s every

Toads has us pondering peacocks. 😉

MAN do I love the bird naming people for their creativity and senses of humor!
Ohhhhhh, he is certainly no bird. Nice write De
Luv the note about the group of peacocks
Much love …
I hope she will do something constructive to help him. Very clever, De.
She’s wise

Smarter than Wikipedia
Webster and Mother Earth mag combined

Ha! Nice ending, which immediately socks home the metaphor.
Ha! I adore that closing line, De 😀
…and he’s stinky, and he’s messy, or so my dad tells me after he worked at job for a man with peacocks
Strutting narcissist… Love it!
to think he’s every
-thing the world needs
and more
He’s everything regal and elegant much to the point of being intimidating!

and that”

and turned”
