A Dancer's Prayer"
By: Maria Spratford

Dear angel, Ever at my side
Be there today, my feet to guide.
Help me dance high, and light, and free,
So everyone will be proud of me.
May the judges be fair and the stages be spacious.
In winning and losing let me be gracious,
So that every dance I'll remember with pride.
And angel, please keep my shoelaces tied.

~A Thoughtful Thursday To Amy's Place~

old mill stream

Autumn Memories

Remember so many years ago
At Paddingers mill by the stream
Spreading a blanket by the waters edge
Sharing our childhood dreams

Counting the birds and butterflies
Fluttering ‘round bushes and trees
Watching the beautiful colorful leaves
Gently blowing in the Autumn breeze

You wanted to abandon our safe little world
And chattered ‘bout plans in the making
I pretended to listen intently
But, only sorting through my own thinking

Do feelings change and friendships end
While chasing those childhood dreams
Or will we return and forever meet
At Paddingers mill by the stream.

Teenie…….November 2011

HAPPY THURSDAY TO AMY’S PLACE!


Ben Bulben, Co. Sligo, Ireland


Under bare Ben Bulben's head
In Drumcliff churchyard Yeats is laid.
An ancestor was rector there
Long years ago, a church stands near,
By the road an ancient cross.
No marble, no conventional phrase;
On limestone quarried near the spot
By his command these words are cut:

Cast a cold eye
On life, on death.
Horseman, pass by!



Enjoy your Thursday!!!




Lamh Foistenach Abu!

His Latest 'Change'
To the tune of:
His Latest Flame

My friend Barrack....
came by today...
cause he~ was killing every job in town
with poli~cies that are not sound
T'was Bush he blamed...
for his latest 'Change'

He talked and talked....
and I heard him say...
that he ha~d the best danged plan for us
just a trill~ion more for stim-u-lus
More of the same...
in his latest 'Change'

********** repeat ***********


Though I smiled my guts inside were a-burnin'
Was about to throw up when he said good-bye
Tho' he was gone my stomach still was a-churnin'
What else was there for me to do but cry

Would you believe....
that yesterday...
I ha~d a job and it fed me
it pai~d the bills for my family
We've got a lot more pain...
from his latest 'Change'

****************************


Yeah, we've got a lot more pain...
from his latest 'Change'

Oh, we've got a lot more pain...
from his latest 'Change'
