The first Meeting was taking
place….
Let’s’ get rid of tyranny!
“Thus ever to tyrants.” The Cardinal
said to his twelve friends. “Either they surrender, as General Lee surrendered
to General Grant in Virginia or they will be dead.”
“I totally agree with you.”
Chickadee
whispered to Cardinal, for agreement. “By
the sword we seek peace but peace only under liberty.” Chickadee is originally from Boston.
“Exactly.” said Purple Finch
while trimming his feathers. “Live free or die”! I am tired of hiding during fast
winds. Purple Finch came from New Hampshire for this meeting.
“Not so fast” Said Baltimore
Oriole to Cardinal, Chickadee, and to purple finch. “Wait a minute… ‘Strong deeds,
gentle words.”
I agree, lets’ be firm, but gentle.
Robin said to no one in particular. “He who transplanted still sustains.” Let’s
be thankful to God and also to Eli Whitney for making my state the birthplace
of mass-production manufacturing. Robin is from Connecticut.
“Hey Robin, you are
off the subject. But now that you started, King Williams School was the first
school opened in this country, in 1696." Said Baltimore Oriole the rest of the
flock. Baltimore Oriole is from Maryland.
“Who gave you permission to
delegate this meeting?”
“No one”
“I just think we must work
together and ‘hope’.” Said Rhode Island Red, already annoyed by the others. “I
know I am the smallest, but not necessarily the weaker.”
“We are here to agree with ‘liberty and independency’. I know I am not the greatest either, but I
was the first bird to ratify the Union, and also the first to ratify the
federal constitution. I am a simple Blue Hen Chicken, but I am never late.” The
Blue Hen Chicken said to the Cardinal. She turned around to face the others.
“I am not finished yet. I
did what I said, therefore I am. I am not sure about the rest of you.”
“I am with Blue hen Chicken”.
The Cardinal 2 said to everyone. “I am from North Carolina, and I also think ‘to
be, rather than to seem’.” She continued. “ My state was the home for the
Wright Brothers, and they were the first to fly an airplane.
“You guys stop it”! I know
for a fact that: ‘prepared in mind and resources while I breathe, I hope’. Said
the Great Carolina Wren, “and I will make my state a leading shipper east of
the Mississippi River.
“I vote for ‘Liberty and
Prosperity’, and I am sick and tired of military maneuvers that took place in
here. Said Eastern Goldfinch from New Jersey while drinking water.
“I am the bluebird from New York. I was the
first capital city of the United States. As such I say: Ever Upward.”
“Ladies, Ladies”, clam down!
The Mountain Laurel said to everyone. He
was munching chocolates, but when noticed by Cardinal, he placed the remaining pieces under
his wing. “I agree with ‘Virtue, Liberty, and Independence’. I have
nothing else to say.”
“Wait I minute. I did not
make my point!”
“Go Ahead Brown Thrasher.”
“Thanks. I am sure that we
will be great when we acquire ‘Wisdom, Justice and Moderation’, and do not
forget that Georgia is a top producer of the three P’s – peanuts, pecans, and
peaches.”
We will not forget!!!!!
The meeting was adjourned.
