Borrow 17-12-2023

Borrow a lantern from the endless road
to illuminate the dance of a pair of shadows.
Borrow the sun from a summer's evening

The Masnavi of Giti and Saeed - Part 15, 16 abd 17

Part Fifteen — The Third Cupbearer's Song

O Saqi, pour the midnight wine
That bears the ancient royal sign.

Arise and swiftly bring, I pray,
That sacred draught to light our way.

The wine that ruby lips inspire
And shakes the mountain's heart of fire.

A cup whose color glows like flame,
Beyond all count, beyond all name.

Bring forth that pure, untainted bliss
And

1 SAMUEL 17:4-5

Like I a descendant of David
Like I a descendant of David
My forefathers Father
I too come before giants
You Philistines come with a sword
But I come to you with the name of the Lord

Darn - Apr 17

O’ dear, I learned today you’re spoken for;
I asked the question, got the answer: “no”.
Ayayaye…but, considering the blow
wasn’t so bad, I’m glad I tried to score.

The Heifer and the Ox - Mar 17

Rum n Raisin 17 - Bird Talk

Rum got to his feet and said, “Let’s go play in the street.”
Raisin said, “I’m up for that; some fresh air would be neat.”
They were soon outside and heard a sound… FLAP FLAP… THUD… TWEET

No matter I kept fingers and toes crossed,
