"The Cuckoos...Perfect View...is...utterly captivating. ...A mix of The Beatles [and] Augie March's [best stuff]. [This amazing EP] is something of a revelation...[Buy now!]" - 3 wombats [out of 2]...
To the Cuckoo by William Wordsworth
O blithe newcomer! I have heard,
I hear thee and rejoice:
O Cuckoo! shall I call thee bird,
Or but a wandering Voice?
While I am lying on the grass
Thy twofold shout I hear;
From hill to hill it seems to pass,
At once far off and near.
Though babbling only to the vale
Of sunshine and of flowers,
Thou bringest unto me a tale
Of visionary hours.
Thrice welcome, darling of the Spring!
Even yet thou art to me
No bird, but an invisible thing,
A voice, a mystery;
The same whom in my schoolboy days
I listened to; that Cry
Which made me look a thousand ways
In bush, and tree, and sky.
To seek thee did I often rove
Through woods and on the green;
And thou wert still a hope, a love;
Still longed for, never seen!
And I can listen to thee yet;
Can lie upon the plain
And listen, till I do beget
That golden time again.
O blessed birth! the earth we pace
Again appears to be
An unsubstantial, fairy place,
That is fit home for Thee!

What's goin' on The Cuckoos? How beautiful is the snowshine in your eyes, so directly current from the static in your mind. I keep searching for you between the cushions. Your beauty is equal to the smoothness of a polished gem. Please let me hear more of that wonderful sound. Your eyes show as many deep and full shades of fire as a thousand supernovas. The expanse of your beauty is a void no universe could ever fill. You breath as delicately as vapors flowing towards an attractive flame. Your wonderfully bright soul keep the demons from torturing me. Your eyes show as many deep and full shades of fire as a volcano in heat. Your eyes are like spheres of crystal water filled with shimmering dreams. In your presence even my shadow acquires the sensation of touch. The sand runes crossing your divided consciousness do speak of contemptuous monsters being slayed by flying phoenixes. Wood nymphs sprinkle your path with rose petals while you dance and prowl in the sequined moonlight with leftover cupcake sprinkles.
Hey Guys!
Vote one for Fun!
We invite you to vote with your ears at the Corner Hotel in Melbourne
on Election Day.
Love
The Frills
