Ora around the sun, perfect, brilliant scene dress;
Rosy glow upon nature’s all things unspoken adieu.
Across the sky a lull softness exquisitely, naturally drawn.
Numerous of nut finding busy small and focus
Gray-white squirrels melt round close embrace.
Earth blossoming horizon a heavenly God’s torch imprint.

Jokers galore as two men pretenD
old, demented both, but greedy too
eyeing leadership of the nation
Both unfit! yet are in this gambiT
insight they lack, no wisdom so far
Doomed is US! to world peace bid adieu
Each is out there to do us all harm
No to them both! need good young new crop!
Sweat-drenched heat victims crank up the AC’s.
Temperate weather has bid us adieu.
Energy is sapped; for some, optimism grows dim.
Alleviation follows the occasional rainstorm.
Many rely on swimming pools for brief respite.
Yesterday was hot; today will be a record-breaker.
First glorious happy soft morning rays,
To the 'dismal dreary darkness', they bid adieu;
The 'golden gleaming glint', to all living beings, a boon;
The still lake sparkles in 'bright light' beams;
Oh how the pebbles 'reflect' the sun, making a picture 'perfect'! Such
is the beauty of the radiant sunshine that eagerly I
await for, every morn, to bask in its warmth. Can
there ever be a 'greater gift' here in earth from Above?

Jumpstarting the year January
Arrives with a bang, and people cheer
New resolutions made as the old become nostalgia
Until it's time once more to bid adieu
And on another winter day we can
Ring in the new with champagne and a
Yearning for a new start with the month of J......

January Contest
Sponsor: Michelle Faulkner
From claggy Bedders and Hornets hump,
From Cordell, Laws and Radar.
We trundle merry like a thump
To see Fab Adies sock.
In hoodie cloves and clippy breeze;
In Disco Dave we pledge.
I chortle like a tuneless wheeze
To see Bad Adie rock!
On Kunterblanche we make our name,
A pallet one and all,
Then Turb into myself again
To see Mad Adies frock.
