The Bag Lady

This is a Celtic knot. “The meaning of this Celtic Knot is that with no beginning and no end, it represents unity and eternal spiritual life. The symbols line interweaves through the circle in an unbroken flow.” I think we need these today. Here is one of my favorites.

“According to most historians, interlaced knot patterns first started making appearances around the 3rd and 4th centuries C.E. and can be found in many cultures around the world—they are not proprietary to the Celtic knots are believed to symbolize the interconnectedness of life and eternity, though specific types of patterns and knots do have unique meanings in addition to that.”

Chilling

Sweeping inside

Through door jamb openings

Thermostat is humming wildly

The wind

Snaking around frosted glass panes

Past Jack’s icy artwork

Winter has come

It’s cold!

The word for today’s Quadrille is “careen”. Remember, you must use the word itself, or a form of the word, not a synonym for the word. And the word must appear in the body of your poem of exactly 44 words, sans title.

Adventurous trips, exciting vacations

Every mountain pass we won’t be slowed

We’ll jump in a Jeep and careen down the road

In freezing water’s rushing streams

River rafting is a thing of dreams
Traveling across this beautiful nation

We want to experience these sensations.

Liz twisted the scarlet stoned ring around her finger in an act of nervousness. She was sure that when dusk arrived, her fright would manifest, and she was trying to keep her mind occupied. As soon as the ghoulish figure appeared, every candle’s light started flickering, although the air was still and the stink of the damp floor held steady. Slowly the ghoul approached, holding a bat in front of her face. Was this some kind of trick? Was it going to bite Liz? It seemed forever the ghoul stood there, staring at her, as if waiting for some midnight chime on a dilapidated bell tower to spur an action. It pushed the bat closer and the bat started to protest, trying to get free. What did the ghoul expect? Was this a trial of wills?

Liz started to smile, a slow evil grin. The ghoul quickly stepped back as Liz’s mouth spread wide and grabbed the squealing bat.

Autumn leaves

Hurtling in wind

No snail pace

A kid who was a bit precocious, it was my benefactor who helped me envision a better view of my circumstances. To be honest, when my parents passed away, I was a novice at taking care of myself, especially with finances. He made me grin even through the worst of it. I’m grateful such helpful people exist.

Are you as tired as I am trying to find something new worth watching at home? I am going back to series I enjoyed to rewatch and “Endeavour” is on the list. Initially I saw this on PBS and now it is available on Amazon. As always, I recommend starting with Season one, episode one, to see the characters develop.
