Despotic Dreams

My brother the big dictator
hates my being a drake.
Stands by insisting I wear lavender;
to be seen as a pansy
by all the hot ducks I fancy.

What do siblings know, anyway?
You're so talented. I like the bounce and whimsical quality to this one. Plus, it's deep in meaning.

So cute and you really have captured the essence of sibling rivalry and really it can be applied to close friends too sometimes jealousy and envy result in sabotage there as well

Glad you made it this far...would love to hear your take on the words scribbled. A comment every now and then keeps the blues away. :D

Since, crazy Mr. Blogspot won't let me reply to the comments here (is upset with the water ladies ever since they refused to verify visitors)...will do the next best thing, drop in to your blog to say my Vanakkam/Namaste/Salaam/Hello.
