Excuse me sir, but this is very reminiscent of place once well visited here created by the late Mortimer Dexter Foxworthy AKA Morty Featherhands.

A place filled with poiem and prosey and nonsensical verse. Since you have embarked on this mission are you sure you can fulfill the Feathery choos??
ANDDDD....Should this not then be named the cozy dooryard II???

Just my 3 cents....

Why is a flower fragrant

But not the wandering vagrant



Why is first place good and last so bad

Why does what we never had

Seem so far away

Yet we tell ourselves to stay



In the woods....in the dooryard...run around and google

In the 'hoods....in the foreyard....we have it in our noodle

Knock back into innocuity

Tranq your way to tranquility



If I were a twinkling star

I would tell you you're too far

Yet ever so close..if you only knew

How your reasoning goes askew



Connect the dots in a way not known

Collect your thoughts anew...homegrown

The images in our rear view mirror may appear so far

But they are so much closer than we think they are
