No jewerly snippy, just some odds and ends things like a shoe horn. Do you know in this huge city in Missouri, I thought there were no shoehorns to be had.

Ah but did find one for .99 cents in a store.

I have to have one for a new pair or red suede shoes. I love those shoes however, they are a TAD TIGHT!!

bentfeather has huge feet.

There are many rules set down for various forms of poetry.
I refuse to be constrained by these rules.

Many people like this challenge. However, I have always written Free Verse and am most comfortable with it.

I wrote a Sonnet once that was not a Sonnet, but non-th-less was a danged good poem.

I can write perfect rhyme and have done that without realizing it!! Dumb luck I guess.

Well, I like free verse and that is what I am most comfortable about. I don't understand if it is really poetry I'm writing but I like it.

What can I say now, my whispers become screams and my fears realized.

This is a heart wrenching work snippy. Very well done. Very moving!! The graphic, dusk is especially powerful with your words.

Understanding is really not so important. Sam has always said he knows what he likes and I think that is it.

Yes, it's poetry.

Thank you feather, it was indeed. You are right, it is good therapy to write it out.

Wish I was really back instead of slaying dragons at work.

I still squeaked a couple of new toy poems on a couple of threads.

And wrote this about my dog. She hasn't seen it yet.

LulaBelle

She likes to hug you when you meet,
And Laura is to blame.
But she calms down in just a sec,
And seems to like her name.
She wags her tail like it’s on fire,
It breaks the speed of sound.
The step cats are her closest friends,
When no one is around.
If we appear the cats get chased,
It can be quite a fracas.
But she would never hurt KC,
Or Boo who has a black azz.
Yes LulaBelle’s a funny dog,
And we both know her tricks.
But don’t lean down to pet her,
Lest your face is needing licks.
We love our Labradaniel Lu,
And she loves us as well.
If you don’t like her you are sick,
And can go straight back home.

Flurry 10/8/3

I nearly missed it, it got between a few pings, glad I went back and looked! Better get it saved, it's a keeper for you for sure.
