Abigale




A parcel arrived, what could it be?
"Surely" said Mathilda "It's all for me!"




Tis true, she's been begging and pleading for another baldy head.
A sister with a shiny pate and little twiggy legs!
The wonderful Miss Evelyn agreed to share her kin, 
Abigale arrived last week from her wonderland 
I do hope she settles in.



Dear sweet Abigale,  a fragile and exquisite creature, a tiny bird who finds herself most at home on Gertrude's lap. Don't worry Evelyn, Mathilda loves her dearly, she hasn't even pinched her yet!

Oh, Mel. I really think you should be aware of the tell-tale signs of sgae and onion stuffing being prepared. Don't want to be a pessimist, but...

You wicked creature, she'd be barely a mouthful!

Anthropomorphica said...

Jeff, I'm still laughing!

Melanie, Thank you so much for giving Abigale such a loving home and look at all of her new friends! I love this post, to see them all surrounding her just waiting to meet her. How sweet she looks on Mathilda's lap and to know that she is so loved. Thank you so much Melanie! for your sweet and kind words.

Shayna said...

Oh Melanie ... the sight of your becharmed friends gathering anxiously around the freshly arrived parcel is SO VERY DEAR. How I love them. Mathilda must be beside herself with glee at her new 'baldy headed' comrade, Abigale! And what a VERY special charmer Abigale is!!! She must feel so welcomed and happy, especially since Mathilda loves her so dearly ... and since you are her new darling Mistress.

Anthropomorphica said...

Shayna!! Oh, I do miss you when you're not around :) Abigale is very dear indeed and we're loving having her! Have to keep one eye on Ms. M though just in case ;)
