April -- NaPoWriMo 2023 Day 21 -- and "Time" for a Write for Friday Writings


        Keeping Time

It has been said, “time affects all things”
Between you and me that's all hooey   
I have "time" in the house most every room 
Micky Mouse, digital, wall, and stove 

Seems every "time" I need my flashlight 
I have to find it, no place of it's own 
Songs like "time", they make use several "times"
"You picked a fine "time" to leave me," Lucy 

Lunch "time" is the best, my mom comes to mind, 
"Have fireman lunch today, dessert first"

An Orange 'play it again' -- Carpe Diem

Orange Cézanne
 
Wonderful find
Flowers, roof, heart, in orange
Paul Cézanne in Albi
Original painting in
Henri Lautrec's Museum


[Mrs. Jim and I] found this original in the Lautrec Museum in Albi, France. It is by Paul Cézanne (1839 to 1906) and yes, he was pretty quirky, both artists were. (Cézanne Wikipedia link)

In just a lot of his pictures you can see Mont Sainte-Victoire as in this one. It is a mountain in Provence, France. Cézanne can see the whole view of the mountain from his house near Aix-en-Provence. He drew a series of oil paintings about or using his favorite mountain of his.

We were requested to find a haiku written about "orange" from the past posts.  I wasn't writing many haiku back then, certainly none emphasizing "orange".  But I did have this wonderful picture with Orange find from a travel post back in 2009 (link).

Other Orange pictures in posts:  Cable Car and Lady Bug.
