L-ove sets things aright, 
U-sing the word of the day; 
C-herish these four letters 
I-n taking the hate
A-way.

S-ame love sets things aright, 
A-s the anger passes by; 
M-ay tenth early morn
A-ims to brighten the sky.
N-ew dawn has broken, 
G-ray fades into the night; 
C-omfort meets harmony, 
A-s love sets things aright....

The word of the day is cakeage;
It’s when restaurants charge a fee
For bringing in an outside cake,
Which never used to be.

In fancy places, oenophiles 
Prefer to bring their wine,
So there’s a corkage fee, which many
Seem to feel is fine.

But up ‘til now, I’ve never heard 
Of anything called cakeage,
Though dot com dictionaries likely 
Don’t make a mistakeage....

storms happen
happenstance stomps
selfish selfies inherit the wind
windmills become grist for the mill

Armageddon trending now
Utopia is Merriam-Webster's Word of the Day
go figure (& lie about the figures)
too many figurative flies in the proverbial soup

words float like moths to the factoid
sting like a bumbling bezoar
fly like a flock of birdbrains
put that in your pipe & tweet it...

WORD OF THE DAY: ETHICS

Science and Engineering have benefitted immensely from PHYSICS
Another major concept that has hastened aeronautics is KINETICS
But science is itself a noble profession with its values and ETHICS
Scientists are neither known for oratory prowess nor PHONETICS
Yet they have produced drugs that are as effective as ANESTHETICS
All these and many more were attained with or without AESTHETICS

Today’s definition is BOWER,
A shelter of tree boughs and vines
Which sometimes has blossoms that flower,
With man-made or Nature’s designs.

It’s also a common misspelling
For Bauer, my married last name,
Despite all the products now selling
As Bauer, of clothes and skates fame.

Still, I like the “bauer” connection.
It conjures an image quite pleasant,
Much better, of course, on reflection,
Than its translated meaning of “peasant.”...

Let us focus on forgiveness
Make it our word of the day
Whether it be of yourself or someone else
Sit back and watch what it creates

As it takes the heart of the hurting
Kneads and melds it into shape
You've never lived until you've learned to give
The bitter taste of bitterness away

Take hold of the hand of forgiveness
Letting it lead you where it may
You'll never go wrong with the path that it's on
Where forgiveness is the best of all ways...
