It is Do You Know Where Your Potted Plants Are?
Right beside your porch,you say?
They are plotting their escape!
Those pots are sneaking into the shadows,I say!
They are at the corneralready!
Frantically ...looking for a disguise!
Poof, here they are!Transformed into a
Giant Bare-Headed Mozart
Oh, no,they elephant-napped Albert!
An elephant weighs thousands of pounds
with every step he takes he can bring your house down
it gets pretty scary when he starts to dance around
doing the elephant two-step. *
What nextAn ele-pot plot?
Oh, no!They are marching
with the elephant
through the looking-glass!

"Più rosso non si può,"
more red is not possible, don't you agree? ;-)
I was tempted to call this entry "Rosso della Sera", but then again ... ;-)

ReplyDeleteFrom the color swatch of the red carpet, I would have never been able to imagine that the covered entry way would look so gorgious at night (it was built to serve as a walcoming area at the entrance to the Vienna Sate Opera building during the Opernball). Those flower pots were simply delightful.
Those flower pots were simply delightful to look at (not that they talked, they were potted plants, after all *smile*).
