Can any of you think of and are willing to share interesting Lowlands cuckoo
folklore and verse, especially with reference to the bird’s “naughty” side?

Thanks and regards,
Reinhard/Ron

Hello Reinhard,
I have been in Tasmania for a couple of weeks and have been out of touch
with the many mailings.
Here is een kleine poezie....

Groen is 't gras, groen is 't gras,
onder mijne voeten!
'k heb verloren m'n beste vriend,
waar zal ik hem zoeken?
He daar, plaats gemaakt voor die jonge dame!
En de koekoek op het dak
zegt zijn liedje op gemak:
o mijn lieve Augustijn,
deze dame zal het zijn!

Cheers
Peter Snepvangers
