A Mysterious Thing

She is a mysterious thing… Invincible, Invisible & a Master of Torment. Do not try asking why—that is exhausting. She is temperamental— Like An old pick-up truck. Speak sweet to her--rub the steering wheel She will take you from point a –to- point b. Curse and Swear--Rant and Rave… You will find yourself kicking tires & walking away. Some days she makes me feel like a scraggly, stray dog. Homeless and tired, wandering alone. She is a Beast—a loud, flashing bright light. I see her, I feel her—but others have no sight. She is selfish and avaricious-- Consuming my days & taking my nights. Never bothering to ask—if I have plans. Certain hopes-will not-be obtained. Picking and Choosing--Battles and Tasks, Maybe tomorrow--if just for the day. The fog will lift & rain will play. So many spoons—not enough plates. Copyright © fonda anne….mooreofme....mamao

Fonda, Congratulations on your awesome win. Thank you so much for supporting my contest. Stop by my blog "LAST CALL" if you like. ((( note from MEakaPD Thank you ALL for waiting and chilling, while I sat on the sideline. Since March 1st, I moved to the 4th largest city in the USA (by population.) One of the hardest decisions EVER-EVER!!! I will keep short on my visits until April 1st. After that, there's no holding me back LOL -unless God has other plans. Always & Forever ~LINDA~
