Along with not pluckinh heads, humans also no not pluck eyes, but birds do.PBurnshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05781540805883519064noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7684843.post-33031681308287449022014-03-26T19:26:20.323-04:002014-03-26T19:26:20.323-04:00My friend from France who teaches French in the St...My friend from France who teaches French in the States made this comment about the song: Well from what I know, this French song is about a lark or a skylark. Some people say that the song originated in Quebec, Canada; some other people say that it originated in France.<br />We use that song to teach the body parts in class. But when we sing "I will pluck your feathers away", I refers to a human being, not to a falcon. Back in the days, people would hunt and eat larks in France.<br />It is NOT about a Merlin plucking the feathers off a lark.<br />Karen Carrollhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01602911871393351134noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7684843.post-10652486457740997722014-03-24T12:22:25.898-04:002014-03-24T12:22:25.898-04:00http://markgchurchill.blogspot.com/2013/11/le-chan...http://markgchurchill.blogspot.com/2013/11/le-chanson-de-lemerillon.htmlMark Farrell-Churchillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09867907324318184817noreply@blogger.com
