MLMM WORDLE #215

Santa is done

The stockings are empty

The presents opened

The Yuletide log is burned out

The tree is shedding needles

The mistletoe is drooping, but hanging on

The holiday pudding is sitting in the fridge, forgotten

And the tired reindeer and elves take a short break till January first to do it all again.

30 Day Song Challenge #26

by rugby843, posted in Uncategorized

A song that makes you want to fall in love:

“Unchained Melody” by the Righteous Brothers. If anyone finds or has a recording where both sing instead of just this version, let me know, send a link please. I couldn’t find that version. I prefer the version with the lower voice joining in.

“Sergeant of the Guard:The Road in Iraq” by R. Morgan Chrihfield

***

Joe was speaking to his Sergeant about the current news. . .There’s “flaws in the system I witnessed, I was a better person for having” seen it for myself.

Joe was worried about the future of the people in this country. They had arrived to help, save lives of the innocent, and yet at times it seemed futile. They were not getting the support they needed from back home.

“It’s always been this way, Joe. Some bigwig makes a decision with no knowledge of actual war or combat, and plays with our lives like we’re in a video game. It’s terrible what’s happening to people like this around the world, but we can only follow orders.”
