Latter-Day Don Quixote
When and how did we see chivalry last or is it now a thing of the past and honour among thieves is no honour at all while beating my brains against the wall besting the dragons at City Hall am I wrong in thinking it's my fight or am I errant as a roving knight exhibiting gallantry within a crowd of apathy indifferent to the powers that be outnumbered and outgunned Sancho when needed...

Winter Blues
There's a hint of winter in the evening air as the autumn days dwindle down to a golden few but I'm looking forward to spring and all it will bring when the whole wide world is reborn anew and then with summer just around the corner to see me through I'm thinking of early mornings with you to meet the sun and how a daydream or two for now will...

Premium Member hitchhiking to mars
We’ll hitchhike to mars on a rocket not a car, so say your au revoirs. We’ll steer towards Polaris, the north star right through the center of the milky-way-bar. See, the universe is dark and chocolatey. Stars that glitter like multi-faceted gems, are just shiny, yellow, peanut M&Ms, take a handful, if you’d like, they’re free. We’ll dodge the silhouetted moon, which is made of...

Premium Member He's Still My Man
(A country song to my hubby…read this with a Loretta Lynn voice) Verse one: Well, my man is the kind who likes to unwind with a BudLight and western shows. He watches them over and over and over till I think my head’ll explode! A ballcap is all that he will wear on his head, except when it rains...

Weatherman
Reincarnated in my next life, a meteorologist I want to be with scientific paraphernalia at hand and land the weatherman's job on TV. Where I can lie without restraint, never apologise for rain and cloudy skies, or for what it is when it ain't sunny with a bright sunrise which is what I promised the night before. I can be completely wrong more...

Close Shave
Before a misty morning mirror above a half-filled basin such cold water was I braving simply to lave my face in but the coldest cut of all and it only hurts when I smile I severely slit myself while I was busy shaving but did my frozen fingers fumble or was it just a rusty razor which sorely needs replacement that figured in my defacement as there...

Agatha Christie - 1890-1976
er first time on a board, February 1922, was Muizenberg, South Africa, then again, in August, the lady surfed Honolulu, Hawaii, where, by Duke Kahanamoku, there may have been taught, and in Waikiki lost her shorts. Who would have thought, of all the girls in the whole wide world, she was the sort to shoot the curl. Tho' a novel way to spend the day, no crime this time,...
