4 and 20 black birds baked in a pie.....
OR
1 and then another black bird falling from the sky.....
The other day was a BEAUTIFUL day and I got off work before 6:00 at night so I figured I was going to go outside and ENJOY!!!! The garden needed some help so I put on my tank top, some shorts and my sweet sunglasses to catch some rays while cleaning up. IT WAS WONDERFUL!!!!! After I worked for a while I decided to swing on the swing. {Oh man it was fun!} You know when you're swinging and you're to the highest point and you look out and you feel like you can see everything?? [and it's from such a different perspective] I looked to the left and there was the garden; green with rows of dark and light dirt and a blossoming huge sunflower in the corner. Out in front of me was Sampson, waiting for me to get off the swing so I could play with him. The nice white house in the background with a cute little bench to accent just how magazine-ish it was. (if I took a picture of it right then, it could have been put in a magazine.) Off to my right, a cute little playground, red, blue, and yellow. Green, green, green everywhere!!! An awesomely huge tree that cast a colossal shadow. It was just wonderful!!! There was Sampson's ball, there's my phone, and there's...a crow??????? Yes my friends, a CROW was laying in our backyard. Honestly I've never seen a bird lay down so I thought this crow must be something pretty special!!! {LUCKY ME!!!!} Well, I'm sad to say that this rare black bird was not sleeping.
This morning April texted me asking me about this sad bird. "Yes, last time I saw the bird, it was in the back yard. DEAD AS A DOORNAIL." Well the birds last dying 'caws' must have been beautiful because another bird also chose our yard to spend it's last breaths.
Is it because our grass is so soft?
Is our air dirtier so as the fly by, they just die???
Did they decide our lawn was a central location for a burial ground??
MY OPINION?????
Our worms are rotten.

Rotten worms never heard of anything so absurd but............
it could be or maybe you have a very mean and quickly vicious dog. Not sure but I did enjoy the view; before the dead or dieing bird.
