Prepping for the Sunday Drive

Desiccated and sere a blob of bird poop right here
in the center of the windshield.
The bucket, rag and soap; now it’s clean, for good we hope.
Wring the rag, swirl the pail, toss the water in the grass.
Awk! What iridescent flash o’er my head did I see pass?
Grackle Bomber in a dive on the scene does now arrive.

Dead-center hit.
The windshield again besmeared with it.
The End

  1. Haaaa! Laughing in recognition- spot on (no pun intended...)

  2. Shelly, a laugh to start your school year. "spot on": Let's call it a double entendre.

    Chuck, exactly, and true so far as I have been able to observe to date.

    Rebecca, too right; and as Shelly said, "spot on."
