Pondering Dreams

by rugby843, posted in Uncategorized
Coming or going, up or down who can tell with the kitten shown? It resembles my life right now, seems I don’t know where I’m going, if I’ve already been there and I’m back, or only dreaming it. I know what I desire, I would like dreams to come true. Doesn’t everyone want their dreams to come true? This late in life I reflect and had some wonderful dreams come true but think now my dream-times are over. Satisfaction comes from seeing the young people in my family achieve their dreams. I guess that’s what life is all about and I should take solace in that. But then, as I sit here alone, getting ready to sleep in an empty bed, it’s hard not to dream, hard to think this is it, this is the way life is going to be from now on and wondering if it could have been different.

3TC – Modern Times

We will not silence the devices

Electric or battery

We rely on these miracles of progress

As we crave even reluctantly, the daily madness

  1. Do you find it relatively easy to fall asleep at night? Absolutely not
  2. Do you remember your dreams? Not usually
  3. If you can’t sleep, do you watch TV, read or listen to music in the hope you will nod off? I listen to books
  4. Can you literally sleep anywhere (chair, sofa, bus, train, flight etc)? Oh no
  5. I am grateful to have had a visit from a granddaughter, and she helped me put away all the Christmas stuff in a high closet.☺️

dVerse Poets Quadrille – Ice

by rugby843, posted in Uncategorized
Icicle. Icing. Ice-cold. Ice-covered. Ice-cream. Ice breaker. Ice cube. Ice age. Iceless. Icelike. Icelandic. De-ice. Iceberg. Icy. Iceman. Ice-bound. Use it as noun, verb or adjective. Create your own hyphenation. A simple little word with so many possibilities.
Remember your quadrille must be exactly 44 words, not counting the title and must include ice or a form of the word.

Icy Shoulder

You turn away and show your back
I suppose it’s what I lack
That causes you to turn away
All that disdain coming my way
Should have known
That feeling grown
Into a sad regretful time
Could not be fixed even in a rhyme

Sweet and Sour

She looked nervously at the hourglass. She had tried to block every craving and finish the diet challenge, but found it an aimless circumstance. Maybe tomorrow she would start again, but it was a sticky wicket. Because once she had determined women generally are not lucky In finding a mate who wouldn’t like to take the scissors to every part of their body to sculpt it in a model-like image, the concept of “love me as I am” was out the window.
