Poem by Taj Mahal,
inspired by Molly's Owl Box last night:
"Twas a Dark and Owly Night"
by Taj Mahal, guinea pig poet, please enjoy:
*********************************
"i spy with my little eye
three fuzzy-wuzzies all up High:
we hop, we flap, we even FLY -
hope you can feel us kiss the SKY!"
(EDITOR'S NOTE: THIS IS TAJ'S FIRST POEM.)
while writing this poem, YumYum encouraged Taj by hopping up and down inside his sleeping bag.
we feel it really helped.

WHEN WE LOOK DOWN AT FRONT GATE
Dear Readers,
From our floor up in the stratosphere extends a deck from which we can look straight down at our front gate.
This is what we see.
It is very different from what we are used to seeing.
So, mainly we look up.
At the sky.
Which is the same sky we are used to seeing, full of clouds wafting overhead teasing us with their Power to rain,
hail, snow, drop ice pellets, or simply drift off and leave the Sun Shining liquid Happiness through our many
windows! We have South West facing windows, so when the Clouds have Mercy, Liquid Sunshine pours through
them to brighten our day (and mom's mood!) with Holy Bright Light!
For some reason, the Clouds have been mischievous this spring and are pretending it is November instead of May.
We may need to face them up-close-and-personal to politely request they respect the season, since our summers
are only three months long to begin with...and spring (not to mention summer!) seems not yet to have begun.
So, clouds, we are asking politely...please, please go away and come back on another day, like next year, OK?
Respectfully Yours,
Yum, Raj and Taj Mahal
p.s. we aren't kidding!

HOLY WOWL! LAST NIGHT WAS A THREE-FOR-ALL!
Dear Readers,
Now all 3 of us pigulas are as addicted to Molly's Owl Box as mom (just took awhile to realize they were not going to eat us because we have such acute senses and at first thought they were in the new apartment)
And last night, Austin, owlet #3 just TOOK OFF! Surprised us all, no hesitation, no hop-flapping, noooo
WORRIES: to quote our Jimi Hendrix, Austin just sang:
"'Scuse me, while I touch the sky..." and simply took off...and then disappeared below the screen so
all the MODS absolutely freaked out and we thought they were funny: humans!
No faith in us, whatsoever. We have instincts, people, we were born to KNOW THINGS! Or taught by mom, dad, and each other, especially in a herd we teach each other how to scatter litter OUT THE BOX during our frantic NASCAR race-chases and suchlike games. Mom had to get a lightweight vacuum we got so good at
our LitterScatterGame! In fact, she was so tired of sleeping with it in her bed, she moved us into the living room...MOM!
back to Molly's Owl Box:
That leaves only little, fluffy Wesley now...who gets to enjoy his meals all to himself now that the other
three are out of the box when mom and dad bring din-din! We think Wesley is guinea pig #1 FAVE OWL.
Who is YOUR fave owlet?
YumYum off to the morning HayPile!

Toronto breaking news/twitter/CANADA - Have you heard/watched Molly's "OWLBOX" yet, it's very cool....
Toronto breaking news/twitter/CANADA - Have you heard/watched Molly's "OWLBOX" yet, it's very cool....
Molly is now "Breaking News" in Toronto, Canada, and we feel this kind of news makes our world happier!
Also, mom has been spending time with Taj Mahal on her lap and we now feel he has "lap-pig" potential,
especially once the Mahals are neutered...mom says he is very, very soft, that both Mahals seem to be
"silkies" and even though I may not be a "silkie" being YumYum is good enough for ME!
Mom says better than "good enough" that I am WONDERFUL.
Even if I am not breaking news in Toronto, I am always breaking things here in Bellingham!
love,
YumYum
p.s. we are having winter storms here like crazy, and last night felt like November! Raja said because we
moved from Wildlife Sanctuary to city and Nature throwing a temper tantrum....dunno, just that mom
nearly got blown off her walker last night when the wind whipped inside the hood of her jacket, turning
it into a parachute! You should've seen her hair! Maybe not...like zombie hair.
See you's guys later!
