" Style is knowing who you are,
what you want to say,
and not giving a damn. "
Gore Vidal
Another Gore Vidal quote: " Write something, even if it's just a suicide note. "... so here I go...
Fed the horses and was treated to a show... the Canadian geese that usually stay the winter here-abouts, (4) this year, took off from just past our lower pasture in single file flight honking their hearts out. Beautiful creatures.
Gail's shoulder hurting her big time today... the two surgeries in the past not helping a wit.
My entries... " Poetry in Motion" daily contest:
FireStorm
Choking... I struggle
lest burned
Flames blazing
dancing in the wind
No chance remains...
end.

Tubular !

Waters yet unsullied swell
Gnarly forth Dude, I

Submitted the poems rather late today with (30) minutes to spare... the cut off time is 12:00 a.m. EST.
Two poems with polar opposite themes... " FireStorm ", a futile race from death most charnal... I felt compelled to punctuate the last line 'end' with a closing period.
The Haiku poem, " Tubular ! ", a cry of exuberant life... the scenic inspiration yet another seascape... cool !
Full moon out tonight... Orion visibly dimmer. May break out the binoculars for a better look-see.
Later... Dude(s) / Dudette(s) !!!
C'ya.
