Dog days of summer are lingering long, taking their toll as lethargy grabs hold. So I pray: Hurry Fall!

Well said, Kim! Wonderful subtle flow from line to line. Here in CA it has gone from summer to fall in a matter of days! Very unusual! Sending you blessings of autumn joy and lower humidity!

Here in Missouri, we got a taste of fall. I hope it is not just a tease. Great job on the Ninette.

I admire you! This is a form I have yet to master. It’s a perfect representation of this colorful time of the year, OMG! The cat came the minuteI was writing to you. She did it earlier, too, when I was. Answering your comments to the POTD can you explain this? I can’t. Blessings, Pangie xx

Thank you, Pangie! And no, I can't explain the cat, but I sure got a kick out of it.
