About

This is the personal writing site of Barry Hurd- online consultant, designer, writer, marketer, entrepreneur, and father.

Okay. I must be bored off my rocker. I figure that I’ll torture you with funny holiday poetry that I wrote up.

I hope everyone out there takes a moment and appreciates what they have. There are a lot of people in my life that I care for, a lot of people I love, and I hope that all of my friends here on Myspace are surrounded by people who care about them.

Happy Thanksgiving Everyone.

Life as a Turkey

I thought that life was pretty good,
Living my days in the woods
Then my friend came by,
He was covered in mud
And I thought ‘what is that crud’

He said run boy, run!
As I heard the bang of the gun
And I wondered,
why my Indian friend was smiling…

He was probably thinking
Dinner had almost begun

I gobbled down my pride
And ran faster, and faster
As I left that pig behind
I’m probably a bad friend
For leaving him to his end

Yet it was I,
for whatever reason I don’t know why
that those stupid puritans wanted to find
Me, the ugly bird who couldn’t even fly
Why choose today, as the day I should die?
