Rooster Tanka

Could it be, perhaps,

a red feathered friend resides

in our neighborhood?

Cock-a-doodle-do wakes us –

Dreaming or reality?

    Hmmm, I think I’d rather hear a rooster than the incessant buzz of an alarm clock! LOL! Nice Tanka, Lauren ๐Ÿ™‚

  2. Every day I awake to the sound of roosters. Unfortunately, their idea of time to get up is not mine. I go back to dreaming, too soon to wake to reality. Virginia

  3. ha ha ha oh this is serious..sorry about the ha ha..Roosters are agents of outer space did you know that…man you are in danger Run…now

    what a fun poem,,I hope its real cos that would be so much fun ๐Ÿ™‚

    1. I’m run, run, running, Soma, and you are TOO funny! This is real, so now I’m a bit worried about having an agent from outer space live near me…although, it could make life much more interesting! ๐Ÿ™‚

    That would be nice to wake up to the sound of a rooster in the morning. ๐Ÿ™‚

    1. Thanks, Geraldine, and I didn’t know they’re good luck! Great to know! ๐Ÿ™‚ I loved your haiku and sorry to see you leave this month, but enjoy, and I’ll look forward to seeing you in August! ๐Ÿ™‚

  5. no Rooster for me thank you!! I did have a “stone” one in the house…I discovered later that they are good luck but it fell down and broke his uh, “nose”! I love silence in the morning these days, it is a luxury! Love, Linda

    1. Oh, too bad your stone rooster broke! I just found out that they are good luck and that’s nice to know! Okay, now I know, no roosters for you, Linda! I agree with silence in the morning, although, Copper wakes up around 6:30 or 7am, so he’s my alarm clock! ๐Ÿ™‚ Thank you and hugs! xoxo

  6. You’ve undoubtedly noticed that I’m very fond of roosters; therefore, I would say that even if he’s real, he’s a dream! Cock-a-doodle-woo-hoo!

    1. Well, I really don’t mind, it’s just unusual in a residential neighborhood and I thought I was going crazy at first! ๐Ÿ™‚ Woo-hoo back to you! xx

    1. I love them, too, it’s just funny on our block and I wonder if they’re even legal. I’d love to live out in the country or on a farm…maybe in the future! Hugs and love to you, too, Deb, and have a great weekend! xoxo

  7. Ahh, but i have plenty of red-feathered neighbors here in the farm where I live, but their cock-a-doodlings don’t bother me because I’m used to the early-morning sounds they make. I hate it when my neighbors take their roosters to cock-fighting derbies which is a cruel gaming practice here in my country.

    1. I would love to live on a farm, Cynthia, and I don’t mind their …doodlings, but it’s odd in a residential neighborhood! ๐Ÿ™‚ And I agree with you about the derbies or any kind of animal cruelty. I don’t understand those who can stoop to that level~hugs!
