Cuckoo for Coconuts!!
Hooray! Hooray! It’s National Pina Colada Day! 
So, whether you do or do not like getting caught in the rain . . .
Whether you are or are not into health foods or champagne . . .
Regardless of your opinion about waking up at midnight—
Let’s put the lime in the coconut and bust out in poetry! Pul-lee-e-e-e-sa!* PLEEESE!
Thinking coconuts, tropical islands, pineapples ripe for the plucking, and cuckoo birds write a poem. And yes, because the notion that there even is a National Pina Colada Day is slightly cuckoo, use as many words as you can think of which include the letters C and O in that order. If you really want to cut loose, try including a bird call or two!
Set the timer for 7 minutes.
Start writing!
Don’t think about it too much; just do it.
