Single Malts - and other odd Musings

The Midday Wade of Great Blue Heron by Jerimia Wadsworth Bullfrog


Listen my tadpoles and you shall share in
the midday quest of the Great Blue Heron
On the 18th of August in twenty-twelve
Hardly a frog is here to delve
That remembers that famous day they shun!

A phantom bird , with each leg and wing
Across the pond like a ghosted thing,
And a great blue hulk, that was magnified
By its own reflection in the tide.

with apologies to Longfellow
