Its your B’day,
Time to be Happy & gay.
Put on that lovely smile & walk that extra mile!
After all the cakes you bake,
The calorie counter is at stake!
Lay down the boots, drop the shoulder.
Take rest, let the mind wander.
alas it’s your day,
Give the ADDA team a break,
Your dedication is doing wonders,
ADDA is growing stronger…
Whip up a Ganache, make a turnover,
Apple or pineapple –nah, do it with durian when not sober!
Deconstruct a pavlova, reimagine an opera,
A pinch here, a dash there,
A drizzle, a flambe…
Life’s boring- create some melodrama!
Dance a tune, declutter the mind,
Don’t play mommy tonight!
The Girls are teens now,
Let them loose today, don’t raise a brow!
Ask Hubby to be at his best,
Toast a bubbly & forget the rest!
Alas, it’s your B’day,
& You deserve the very best!

an occurance of a dynamic conjunction

that the heels shall make sandwiches with bovine

thank ye oh God of Harvest

he wears a tuxedo when he eats these fabulous burgers!
they are so scrumpsous!

Maram grass dewed.
An adda takes a chance,
And, drinks from the dewed Maram,
Ere the sun dried it.
Now full of pep was awa.
Saw, I was astounded!
Or did I just imagine?
Our deed done, clock says home.
Otto called, "We are late, come on"!
"Nan will be worried"!
"Ata", I screamed, then ran!
Home, nan greeted us
with some pop fruit flavoured.
Mmm, fresh apple cider.

Lets Heal Our Hearts With Love Anew
(Echo Sonnet, number 4)
Darling, please heal again this broken heart,
once our hands sought each other's soft touch;
when our nights found no dancing was too much.
Always you and I from that kissing start.
Can we find sweet true love and never part?
Fly upon white snow covered mountain tops;
move heaven and earth, pray it never stops!
Always you and I from that kissing start.
Next consult our love's astrology chart?
Discover new moans in our night's hot bed;
As we forget those love hurts in our heads.
Always you and I from that kissing start.
Darling, please heal again this broken heart
Always you and I from that kissing start.

Debbie's 6/6/6 Sonnet challenge -Number 4
SONNET FORM #4 Echo Sonnet a*bbA accA addA a*A.
a*, a and A lines all rhyme and a* and A lines are the repeating lines
Boom-dee-adda, boom-dee-adda, ziss-boom-bah
Halleluiah, hip-hooray and do-re-me-fah-lah
Betcha can't guess why my spirits are flying high
My uncle left me scads of dough, a happy dude am I
Let me see, what to do with all my new found cash
A villa on the Riviera, each night a different bash
Or what about a condo in the centre of Manhattan
Frequent all the trendy spots in tails, top hat and satin
Find a gal with a luscious bod to curl up all my toes
Money talks, I might get lucky Heaven surely knows
Keep your knickers on said one of my very good friends
Is this the way you really want this lurid tale to end
Why not give it all to the needy coz at the end of the day
You'll feel like a million bucks, and this is what you'll say
Boom-dee-adda, boom-dee-adda, ziss-boom-bah
Halleluiah, hip-hooray and do-re-me-fah-lah

COOKING SCHOOL (Fibonacci)
Flour
Dough
Knead it
Give a spin
Itsa nice anda round
Then put it ina the baking pan
Now sauce adda you choice of veggies mozzarella
Put it in the oven Mamma mia! What aroma!
Hey! How bouta some pizza!
Feelings
expressed in words of endearment
A cheek stroking breeze on a hot Summer day
Cool of tile floor to walking bare feet
The squeeze of a hand.
A quick little hug
Tentative brushing the hair from your face
Following that with a tender embrace
Hoping you're hearing what I haven't said
and that it's some comfort to you instead
Trying to find words
in your moment of need
Is all I can think of to do
Maybe tomorrow I'll know what to say
I wish I could do it today
