The Sunday Whirl
Out from the sand and clay a pearly split rose of cactus flesh, a gem of shaded desert climes, spreads its beauty. A drifted group of these pretty plants is never scarce in a garden. Pick a leaf and place in a sandy soil page of your garden and watch it unveil and multiply.

Cream were a British rock power trio formed in 1966 consisting of drummer Ginger Baker, guitarist/singer Eric Clapton and lead singer/bassist Jack Bruce. The group’s third album, Wheels of Fire (1968), is the world’s first platinum-selling double album. The band is widely regarded as the world’s first successful supergroup.

icicles loud drips
plopping on leftover snow
puddles of cold sit
sun baked drifts disappearing
spring is just showing its face

Your nonsense word this week is: “muirmap” Remember, define it; then use it!

(Route shown for California Redwoods)
It’s obvious to me
the word muirmap’s about those trees
Those big masterful ones you see
In Californeeyaaee😳🙄
Beautiful areas and to be specific
They’re in a state edged by the Pacific.
Redwood trees spoken of with admiration
By a Scot named John Muir and whose creation
Of a National Park system for us all
So redwoods and more would not fall.

No Nonsense – Saturday Mix, 16 March 2024
Anyone else?
I have been having a hard time writing on the blog and wonder if it’s me, my phone, or WP! For example, today writing that short poem on SoCS, the lines jumped around and I had to keep copying and pasting to get them in the order they belonged. This happens with story writing also, if I change or add any words. Anyone else having this problem?
And let me take this opportunity to say
to all of my readers and for your comments which means you actually take the time to read my nonsense and let me know what you think. I love the interaction with you as I’m sure all of us bloggers do.

SoCS
Some people love wool
I’m a dissenter
Wearing wool on my body
Never does enter
Cause it’s the kind
My befuddled mind
That’s allergic, oh yes
Give me cotton vests.
Snow is melting in icy patches and the temps are warming to 36F so all is well. Soccer tourney this weekend 👍🏻👏
