NEW!! NEW!!! NEW!!!!..........

I was looking through cat photos on the web and I got inspired!!!! See as follows:

Bob in Black

Your eyes held dark
but sparkles
Four footed
but tailless
Quick on your feet
Right on my lap
Right in my heart

p.s. Bob is my grandkitty who lives
with my son in Athens Ohio

Thursday Quote.....

"Money can't buy you happiness.....but it does bring you a more pleasant form of misery" ---Spike Milligan
I sure would like to test this out....Any takers????

A very important quote!!!!.........

I happened to come across this quote about M.L.King....."Our lives begin to end the day we become silent about things that matter." I keep wanting to get involved in social action.....There are things that I have suffered at the hands of mean people and I want these things changed.....So that not only is for my well being but so that others are freed from similiar circumstances....Often I have found it easier to withdraw but in my heart of hearts I feel I must be heard....My voice to give voice to the suffering of others....Isn't it all about giving back???

I did it again!!!!......

I wrote a poem Tuesday as I was at our JAVA ZONE....I used material from what I had written last Thursday.....Took it to my Writers' Group and got a lot of great comments....also a couple of suggestions.....none of which I have decided to use....and that's my privilage.....I am trying to figure out how to post it here...but I can't figure it out....I'm not really game to type the whole thing out again....So no one will be seeing it here today....sorry.....

Seen On A T-Shirt.....

"We're Sorry.....
The government you've been
trying to reach has been
disconnected and not
in service for some time now.
Please take note of it."


All too true....
All too sad.....

Today's Quote.....

"We need a renaissance of wonder. We need to renew, in our hearts and in our souls, the deathless dream, the eternal poetry, the perennial sense that life is miracle and magic." ----E. Merril Root

Well Rewarded.....

Today on the way home from an appointment I stopped at my favorite resting place in a park that I'm soooo fond of.....My main purpose was to sit there and write for an hour as I wrote down as a personal scheduled writing time at my Writers' Group Wednesday eve....I would glance up from time to time to be able to write about my surroundings so that I could reach my writing goals.....Several times I wondered if I'd see my favorite bird while I was there.....and sure enough!!!!! I saw BLEU!!!!! My dear Blue Heron friend.....He was flying down the river valley just a few feet above the the surface of the water and then right in front of me....BEAUTIFUL!!!!! This picture is one I got off the web.....and shows a bit of what I've been talking about in regards to my infatuation with the blue heron....WOW!!!!!!!
