Time to Write – Fairy Time

Present times in a wooded setting

No need to hide or be forgetting

To fly away when someone comes

Humans are sequestered in their homes.

It’s time to party, dance and fly

As long as humans are not nearby

Even animals can rejoice

And the birds are all in voice

It’s a welcomed change of scene

Fairy magic as all now seen.

Criticism

Now let’s not get personal

Using words as an arsenal

I may be a frump

But when emotion whirrs

Words tumble out

Like a mixer on stir.

They can say, she’s old

Give her a break

But there’s only so much

Well versed minds can take.

Ideas run like icing on cake

She’d never think she would make a mistake

But there’s always a critic or two

Who are indignant, or try to woo

Words blurted out by me and you

Take it all with a grain of salt

That’s what Pliny the Elder taught.

A to Z Challenge – Opportunity

“A set of circumstances that makes it possible to do something” – one definition of opportunity.

We have that chance now as we are all together, really together. . .😊 We now have the chance to sit, listen, talk, play, eat and be with our loved ones, our immediate families.

Take advantage of this time to be positive and enjoy. No hurried up trips in the car to school or practices or jobs that take our time away from each other.

Rest, relax, just BE, and realize that the time you always wanted is with you now.

Fandango’s Friday Flashback – Wordle 151 from 4-17-17

Was it the tide going out, or the clouds overhead that put her in this state of ambedo? Gray skies were warning Melanie to take care lest she be caught in the storm. She hurried along the boardwalk. Melanie was a voracious biker, but not wanting to drown herself and the pile of books in her basket, she switched gears to hasten her flight home.

“There you are, Melanie. I was worried you’d get caught in the rain!” Her mother was always worrying about her, even though she didn’t misbehave often. Lovely fragrances filled the kitchen as her mother placed a plate and fork on the table.

“I made your favorite today, Blackberry Crumble.” Her mother enjoyed making treats for her daughter and the time it took for her to eat them. That was their special togetherness time. Melanie liked to dazzle her mom with wild stories of happenings at school. Her mother listened intently, secretly wishing these times would not end.

Fandango’s Friday Flashback — April 17

MLMM Tale Weaver 4-16-20

***

Opened up the cupboard

Saw a twinkle there

It must have been a fairy

Hiding in despair.

There is no more dancing

Around the room at will

Everyone just sits about

Hoping they’re not ill.

Sad sprites hiding, waiting

For normal to return

When once again they’re free to dance

Around flowers and the ferns.

Word of the Day: Precious

Woke up to big fluffy snow falling which for someone who rarely goes out, is beautiful and a gift of nature. Then read the news and all the positive went cockeyed as our precious earth is being destroyed with help from Trump and his minions. This is only part of an article from the New York Times.
