March is coming in like a lion so the couple of warmer days we just had are done. We could use the moisture here in town. Our color scheme is in the browns. I’m ready for a change.
The prompt is cele and since I’ve just finished watching the series “Lucifer” where the cast includes celestial beings, I’ll go with that. My favorite celestial “items” are stars.
Hope you all have a beautiful weekend! : )

The four brothers always traveled together. A paradoxical group, but stayed together enjoying an adventure each summer. The oldest, Sam was the leader, destinations his specialty. Jeremy, the athlete, made sure the trips included physical challenges. George was the caretaker and little Charlie, the youngest, was in charge of entertainment.
Looking out my window
I see the beauty
Unbothered white blankets
Dipped and folded so softly
The summer stream now icy green –
Reflections from the evergreens
Now only slightly dusted where
The evening’s snowflakes remain
In the cold Vermont countryside.
I first saw him on the Graham Norton show last week. He sang this song and I tried to find that performance, no luck. But! This gives you an idea of the overall . . .(hot). . .performance. : )
Early spring greeting
Lavender glory blooming

Ever forward, no matter the icy wind against my garments, providing a modicum of warmth. I will not be daunted. My quest is sure, my object clear. I must be the one. It is destined, our future together. Only a short distance now, my goal in sight. Her rescue imminent, then the prophecy fulfilled.

I admit it
Out in the open
I love a man
In uniform
Something attracts
Something stirs
Causing acts
Causing whirs
Most any type of “suit” will do
Red, white, black or blue
Wonder about the man inside
Does he have anything to hide?
Possibly, but I confess
It’s the uniform I love best!

She sneaked into the courtyard after everyone else was asleep. It was her nightly routine, to dangle a green cloth over the lowest branch of the cherry tree, there for only him to see. He would wait for it every evening; it was the attractancy of the simple gesture that stirred him. Seeing it was almost a bolt of lightning surging through him anticipating their union. Sixteen year olds falling in love in medieval times was not unusual, although arranged only through strict family decisions.
Each night she was excited to place the tiny signal that meant they would meet again. They both treasured these secret rendezvous. If discovered, the forbidden relationship would cause perturbation in their parents’ eyes. The young lovers knew in their hearts the parents would disapprove, considering the young couple’s wishes mere folly. The lovers were unconcerned with pleasing their elders. They remained determined and proceeded to meet again.

Bobby the bulb was a pesky little guy. He was always trying new things, stirring up trouble and being a general nuisance. His parents, two ceiling lights that had hoped to be chandeliers one day, had finally given up their dreams and spent most of their time trying to keep Bobby under control.
It all started when he figured out he could light himself without the usual electric cord connection. He had seen his older brothers use batteries to light their flashlight bodies, so why not try it himself? Bobby sneaked into the garage and found a box of old parts from a 1980 model cable tv device. He decided to modify it a bit and found he was no longer inhibited by a cord. He could plug himself in at any outlet and the device charged him for about ten hours. It allowed him to play whenever and wherever he wanted.
