Lucky Lluvia
~
Drake and Sol are mates so royal
parents both affectionate and loyal
flying on wings of love
they travel the skies above
I’ve heard rumors of a coup
escaping with a Canadian troop
they joined a merry gaggle
full of laughter and babble
This is the latest in Belén’s collection of fun and playful ceramic figures. They inspire me to laugh, play, and enjoy life. Drake and Sol have found a new home in Canada with Resa. I don’t know if Lluvia will join them or exercise her free will to fly away. You can visit them on Belen’s blog.
Speaking of geese, this silly one was crossing the street near my new office in an Interesting synchronicity. I wonder what it means to have a goose cross my path. Maybe it’s time to play!
What a fun post that made me smile. Mind you, geese and I have a bad history. I remember being chased by one many years ago.,

Got to watch out for the geese walking on the road here, if you hit one you can get a very big ticket.

That sounds like a set up for a bad joke Mark. 🙂

I saw that picture with the goose in the road and it brought up a memory of a friend hitting a goose and getting a big ticket. The police said they are a protected bird and had the right to be in the street. Have a super wonderful day.

Oohhh….Good choice Brad…Goose totem medicine says this: “A goose as a totem can reflect that you are about to break free of old childhood restraints and begin to come into your own.” Sounds like the new job may be bringing you more than just an income! Best of luck with what lies ahead….. VK 🙂

I liked a pair of geese sitting on a big industrial pipe. I decided not to take a photo since it is not good how crowded my cellphone gets from photos! Lol
Happy honking like a goose 📢 or quacking like a duck! 🦆

Ohhh that’s good!!! Lluvia is dancing and singing all over the house, she likes to play and she also likes to meet new friends … now she has a poet friend and is so happy !!
Lluvia loves your precious poem, me too, thanks for giving our baby duck this wonderful opportunity to show her talent to the world … his parents (Drake and Sol) are so proud of their little artist.
She is still very little … but soon we will have great news about her career towards fame 🙂
Thank you very much Brad, you are a good, good friend!!!
We send a big hug from Spain.

With each of your poems the party is bigger!!!
Someday, with your permission, I would like to make a photobook with your funny poems and my funny characters, of course I would make one for you too.
It’s a request from the gaggle 🙂

Con la ayuda de nuestro querido amigo Brad Volz, Lluvia ha iniciado su carrera como artista, por ahora su papel es el de musa para poetas pero esto es solo el inicio …
Muchas gracias Brad!!!

HELLO! Resa here.
Yes, Lluvia has come to live in Canada with Drake and Sol in my home. They are very happy here. There is a BIG lake and we can see it from our windows. They like to fly and dive with many other ducks and birds. Soon, summer will come, and they will spend many more hours at the lake …Lake Ontario. In the meantime they are cozy on the fireplace mantle. I buy chocolates sometimes, but Drake eat most of them, because Lluvia is too, young.
Tonight, I will read your poem to them. Tomorrow, they will fly over the lake, with your words in their hearts.
Many thank yous and much love from Toronto!
