PLASTIC PINK FLAMINGO
©2012 Gary Bowman Pink flamingos linger on a lawn of Freshly fallen flaming Autumn leaves There, beside the neighbor’s picket fence Standing Guard, So ever vigilant Plastic Pink Flamingo Hexagonal, crystal snowflakes fall, Frozen Pink Flamingos standing tall Frosted snowy blanket, Winter’s gift Beady eyes that peak above the drift Plastic Pink Flamingo, Plastic Pink Flamingo Spring has sprung at last, and Winter’s gone Stoic statues standing on the lawn From valley floor to rocky, rolling hills Flaming pink among the daffodils Plastic Pink Flamingo Folks are getting all affectuous For the plastic phoenicopterus To me they seem a tad oblivious Don’t you think it’s kind of obvious Plastic Pink Flamingo, Plastic Pink Flamingo |
