Love EriK Witherkay,
Would also like to see his BEST MATE! Bradd doing a guest appearance at some point. Here is a nice little Pome. Maybe too short, but I’m sure EriK can make it as long as a journey along a quite long Fjord. And twice as pretty.
Butterfly Laughter by Katherine Mansfield
In the middle of our porridge plates
There was a blue butterfly painted
And each morning we tried who should reach the
butterfly first.
Then the Grandmother said: “Do not eat the poor
butterfly.”
That made us laugh.
Always she said it and always it started us laughing.
It seemed such a sweet little joke.
I was certain that one fine morning
The butterfly would fly out of our plates,
Laughing the teeniest laugh in the world,
And perch on the Grandmother’s lap.
Second recital I have to listened to fromErik with a K. Have to listen a few times over because the pitch makes me laugh incessantly. Love this guy.
Well thank you. You should give his mate Brad Fish a listen although a completely different barrel that guy!
