I have a folder on my desk so labeled. (The reasons why are infinitely less interesting than the fact that.)
Someone needs to write a song entitled Hummingbirds and Apple Maggots. Alas, that someone is not I. Any budding lyricists out there?
Well, I’ve now got this song running through my head, so I’ll try a parody:
*If you find fruit to be a hoot
If you’re in the gard’ning sector
Then you’d be drawn to my back lawn
To watch as sucked is the nectar by
Hummingbirds and apple maggots
See them as you dine on
Mr. Brain’s Faggots
Hummingbirds and apple maggots
Nature’s best features are those lil’ creatures!
Hummingbirds and apple maggots
Flying around like tiny Tim Daggetts
Hummingbirds and apple maggots
Nature’s best features are those lil’ creatures!
twickster, when you edit
twickster, give me credit
twickster, I’ve just said it
Head to the arbor and go to h,
Hummingbirds and apple maggots
See them as you dine on
Mr. Brain’s Faggots
Hummingbirds and apple maggots
Nature’s best features are those lil’ creatures!*
Wow. Just … wow.
Wow. Thanks.
Wow.
