| It occurred to me that we need an outlet to wax lyrical about our passion for our birds. At the risk of being labelled a hopeless romantic, here is a beginning. And yes, I know it, I'm no poet! A challenge for you - Make up a verse or two. Or share inspiration you've found or heard, in thought or in word. Your partner ... she won't understand. BLACKBIRD SONG Fair maiden ready to dance Luring me in a welcome trance I dreamt of you last night Blackbird, lets take flight With meekness I approach Safety gear cannot encroach The desire I have for you Blackbird, I’m forever true A deep rumble the throttle brings As your twin pipes sweetly sing My imagination soars Blackbird, I am yours Your seat moulds me into you The stand from repose releases Upon your peg I place my shoe Blackbird, this is your cue My wrist flicks, my vision blurs Dreams soar as the horizons I explore All mere mortals I pass by Blackbird, with grace you fly Majestic, winding mountain lanes Thrilling, twisting ocean ways Curves and corners you own Blackbird, pilot the zone Beauty and beast are one Delight and ecstasy merge On you I belong Blackbird, Wild hearted and strong Reluctantly I head for home Many roads we’ve roamed Grateful for the experience Blackbird, it’s been intense Thanks for the fun But the day is done My energy is dying Blackbird, for you I’ll be pining .................................................. ..

Birdmanxx, me thinks you need to go for a ride, or find a hobby....

Bullet, I was tired and got a bit sloppy. Nutter, I won't mention what's been falling from the sky, but yes a ride would have been nice yesterday. Got any suggestions for hobbies? Maybe I could join an internet forum on blackbirds, that would fill in the time between rides! Creative writing doesn't have to rhyme, it could just be an expression of what your Blackbird does for you ... for example I road a dragon today, swift and mean It gave me a thrill as it swooped and twirled I nearly fell off as it banked and looped It alighted with a light touch upon the ground Dreams on my blackbird find other worlds.

The European settlers that came to Alberta, called the deer here " Red Deer" after the animals which they new from the old country....but in reality, they were refering to "Elk"... However, even though they were calling an Elk , a Deer, the name "Red Deer" stuck. Lois P.S...thank god they didn't call that animal the "flaming purple dirt pig"
