Tipsy Gypsy's Pix
The band got a lot of attention from all the locals, including a St. Thomas photographer (a.k.a. Tipsy Gypsy) when they played on St. Patrick's Day at Tickles. Check out the photos here: http://www.justshootmepi.com/

Three Cow Poems by Alice Schertle.
How Now, Brown Cow?
How
now,
brown
cow?
How’s it going?
Just stopped by –
Heard you lowing…
Lovely view.
Lovely weather.
Good to have
this moo
together.
The Cow
You come across her standing there
as common as a box. As square.
Her lower jaw revolves the cud;
Her hooves stand foursquare in the mud.
Come closer. View with mild surprise
The gentle softness of her eyes.
Consider Cow
Consider cow
which rhymes
with bough
but not
with rough.
That’s clear
enough.
Remember moo
will rhyme
with through
but not
with trough
or though
or tough.
You’ve got
it now:
There’s dough
and bough
and cough
and through
and mough…
er, moo.
Thanks to Sidonie for making Charlotte perform these.
