Star-Gazing

Hear ye, Hear ye, one & all
  Your official invitation
To my 'Mask-erade Ball' --

Come one, come all, short or tall
  Masque your face; else as you are
    ~ Behind each mask, may be a star!

I like this. It's fun and not political. I have a lot to say about this one politically but I do not dare. I'll be run off here with pitchforks or something!!

Aw, c'mon, Andrea: No guts, no glory... Or should I say, 'gory.' lol. Well, whatever your stance, I'll support your right to take it! Let freedom ring (for a change, these days!). Best always, Gershon

I suppose at one time we all wear a mask of one kind or another. One to mask grief? I accept your invitation, Gershon.

I find no truth in anything coming from the mouth of Trump.

Thank you so much for the encouragement, Jenna... although I regret to inform you that President Trump has put a crimp in my plans for the 'Mask-erade' with his new Executive Order, just issued, confining all mask-wearing in the USA to Mardi Gras in New Orleans during Mardi Gras week. Even I couldn't get an exemption! ~ The Lone Ranger

Ha, ha! Love your comment about a souper behind one mask. That would be super-esque! Happy Sunday, JCB! ~ Gershon
