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.
Classic Song Beginnings
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 👍🏻👏

Fandango’s Flashback Friday
#writephoto 11-30-19 by rugby843
Mary saw it in a dream. A perfect scene, with all the elements she loved. It was only a dream, the same one every night, of a meeting. She would be sitting there by the tree, autumn leaves falling around her, cozy blanket to perch on and another for warmth.
Mary would wait there until the blackness rose above the sunset and the chill made her leave. An unrealized dream of every sunset, waiting for him to appear over the horizon and be with her once again.
Fandango’s Flashback Friday — March 15th
W3 – Ekphrastic
Betrayal with a sharpened tool
Playing her lover as a fool
She poses lovely, he then baited
Him, laying sleeping, and sated
Out of the strong came something sweet
But slashed easily while he sleeps
Beauty won the wicked test
No longer strong, now he rests.
