The Bag Lady

Cellpic Sunday – The Smallest Lizard?

The caravan parked in one of the state’s forests, so when the wheels touched bundles of tracks, we stopped to investigate. There were traces of old pelts—legends tended to tell stories of cloud’s breath bearing down on some unwanted hunters of the animals also trying to survive on the land.

The bright yellow taxi lost its wheel sending us walking on the road, into a dark, cruel path—a labyrinth. It was unending, even dripping wet! My sweater started to soak through. When I looked down I saw a crab happily walking to a light. It turned out the crab led us to the opening.

Can You Tell A Story In…

***

You may think that I am aloof

As I sit up over you on the roof

The reason is my dear wife Francie

Is way down on the patio dancing!

I didn’t say I’d be happy to join her

So she stomped out and found her own partner.

The Unicorn Challenge-13/06/25

I would like to be a person of folly

But lately I’m a bit melancholy

I dwell on photos of the past

When family gatherings would last

Now I hate to see them leave

But I don’t go so far as to grieve

Mostly I have a happy life

I can handle with humor most of the strife.

Weekly Prompts Weekend Challenge -Melancholy.

I never want anything to fizzle
I love cooking steak or burgers that sizzle
Or anything that has a bit of fat
I guess pork chops are included in that
There was a time I catered for groups
But standing so much threw my back for a loop!
I still like to see a finished dish
To serve at my family’s wish.

summer grass and crops enjoy this water bath

umbrellas decorate the streets of town

all creatures hide in the infrequent lightning

Sorry, but these fifteen suggestions do not have anything to do with my original text. I do not care for them.

I agree that certain sycophantic congressmen and women delight in following and promoting lies and actions taken by our new (king, overlord, throne seeker, usurper, world hater, narcissist) and other words that describe our nation’s president at this time. Compare the actions of trump with nazis in the 1930’s. It is scary and could be stopped if our congress people who are supposed to represent the people of their areas. Aren’t the actions and protests telling them all they are sorrowfully wrong? Compare:
