An old dog Poem for a One Word Prompt, "Muddy"

The little blind dog
Back yard do her thing
When time to come in
Toto wasn't there

Called and called some more
Toto didn't come
Was no dog in sight
The kids were so sad

Crying half the night
Light left on for her
though she could not see
Old, blind, bit crippled

A call three days gone
"Toto's in my barn
She's a muddy mess
Three dogs brought her in"

 - This is a true story, she was a pathetic soul but never before was she lost.  I don't know who was happiest, us or her. But we were all so very thankful for her newfound friends.

Tarot Anyone? A Poem for Thursday

My Hand

I'll play my hand

the one gave to me

My mama said

I want him to be

No Fool for him

comes "Intuition"

Mothers know right

fine October month

Scorpio scorns

Tarot card is death

Sometimes it slips

latent gene fooleth

'Not a problem"

grin and wink I dream

I don't conform

card says I should scheme

Put the cards up

Mama says it's sin

Mysterious force

Devil's work sets in

 - Kerry has a guest host today, "Ella Wilson, one of the founding members of The Imaginary Garden With Real Toads."  Ella has done research and writing of Tarot cards and the magic they hold.  She explains some to us, but writing of Tarot is our Challenge for Today.  My opinion, I think neither Kerry nor Ella, nor I, believe Tarot cards and Zodiac have power to foresee but probably do have power to take hold and mislead many persons.

A Tuesday Senryu Tanka Poem

Oscar a rabbit

Went to the queen's dinner dance

Missed the queen so sad

Queen too was sad when she heard

Said come back--both happy now

 - Sequell. This is an abrieviated version of a "homework" story I wrote in play school for my teacher, granddaughter KP.  In my story the queen and the rabbit became friends, both lived happily ever after.
