Premium MemberI Don'T Give a Rat's Tail

This is the tale of a soul reaching out to others,

		  but receiving a cold shoulder wherever she goes.

							           Words and phrases

								are misconstrued,

							meanings attached

				which cloud the issues

			which she wishes

		           to address.

Premium MemberKnowing Basil Huckleberry

Basil Huckleberry was an unassuming boy.
We called him boy even though he was in his fifties.
He rode a bicycle around offering rides to everybody
Touched is what grandma called him

He had a low mental IQ I was told
This was before anyone knew about an Emotional IQ
His was off the charts – he loved everyone he met
And

Premium MemberIm Your Huckleberry

I’m your huckleberry
Always makes me smile
Since Val Kilmer used it in the move Tombstone

My husband and I used it over and over

To this day when I hear it
I have the same reaction
And I smile

Huckleberry

You are my sunshine far, far you go in my heart your memories will stay
Their wasn’t a day where you and I would play,

Premium MemberHuckleberry Jam

Spread it on toast,
slather it on an English muffin.
Use it in your milkshake,
to make a smoothie,
top off a sundae or
crown a banana split.

Drop a dollop on a cracker
and plop it in your mouth.

Put it on a plate,
mixed with tiny chunks
of real creamery butter,
then spoon onto a
piping hot biscuit.

Rich, dark, tantalizing . . .
one of life's

decorations here. Just a perfect crust,not to
delicate..it must hold up to the lovely purple juice..
It takes a pie maker
