Putting My Feet in the Dirt 14
Private small space
Smile on your face
It’s always a race
So quicken the pace
Doors open soon
No time to croon
We start to spoon
Just enough room
To steal kisses thereof
In elevator love.
FOWC: Durable
Years come and go, but the goal is the same. Leaders change and we as a country of ordinary citizens, the working class as some might say, are mostly at the mercy of the “powers that be”. However, issues have arisen, fights have been fought, and the country still stands, durable, for 243 years.
Tale Weaver #210
“The circle of an empty day is brutal and at night it tightens around your neck like a noose.”
A while ago we could fill our empty days with humor, secret fantasies, sayings of love, passionate embraces, soft kisses, whispered innuendos, witty jokes. Now all of that is gone, like a vase holding a dead and withered bouquet, now looked upon with sadness. Nothing makes you feel this loss like the darkness of a lonely night.
Bloopers 😂
Spurred on by https://cyranny.com, we were asked about videos that make you laugh. My favorite bloopers are from the television show Seinfeld. Here is an example:
100 Word Wednesday – A Mother’s Love
A mother’s love cannot be compared
To any other you might see there
There’s a special bond, not even of our making
That binds us together, given and taken
The same holds true as later we age
Grandparents’ love is a different stage
Responsibilities of life have changed
Love comes with experience and sage
The bond with grandchildren even more enhanced
Feelings of love are now advanced
With wisdom, advice if carefully given
Openness with love never hidden
A true gift, the love of family
Shared by all of us equally
A constant welcome Valentine
Never just a day in time.
❤️❤️❤️
Word of the Day: Smitten
Where is it written
You have to be smitten
To spend the night
For a “delight”
Women are chastised, men are not
Have you ever given that a thought?
Equality has the need to exist
She said aloud shaking her fist
Alas, these “rules” will never take place
It is the sad lot of the human race.
♡♡♡
HAPPY VALENTINES DAY!
Interstate Woes
(I live at the intersection of two main interstate highways)
***
High winds, rain, later a flurry
Travelling the highway you need to worry
Be cautious when you see them weave
Against the wind, be quick to leave
Those tall vehicles way behind
An off ramp you should find
Weather is fickle
Don’t end up in a pickle!

Three Line Tales #159 “Help me!”
I thought I had my feet firmly planted on the ground
Until I saw you walk by and my heart made that sound
A trill, a thrill, making me catch my breath
It just suddenly stopped, I felt near death
But then you turned, looked back at me
And all the fear began to flee
Instead my heart started to beat again
Beating a rhythm back to my brain
I hesitated as I heard the song
And then I started to sing along…
