My October
My October began with sunrise
Sunrise over
Houston clear that day
Looking come
Halloween at the end
The witch
riding her broom job to do
Brushing
cobwebs dust free makes them shine
One day past
my Birthday, old this year
Calendar
changed Ninety instances

Jim, am I understanding this correctly that you just had your 90th birthday? If so, Happy 90th! I'm watching a netflix series right now that is studying longevity and they interview people who are now approaching year 100 and learning their secrets. Maybe they should interview you? :)
ReplyDeleteHappy birthday Jim. Hurray for that milestone!
ReplyDeleteThis seems to be the season for cobwebs! Very nicely done.
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday! That is a wonderful milestone ~ Truedessa
ReplyDeleteHappy belated birthday. The cobwebs cleared. You are truly remarkable.

ReplyDeleteWell, happy birthday! I am happy for you. My dad is 91 and although he is healthy he doesn't have his mind anymore. Keep writing....
ReplyDeletePlease accept my belated happy birthday wishes, Jim!
ReplyDeleteMuch love,

Dear Jim, ninety is a huge accomplishment! Huge. I am feeling nervous, tested positive for Covid earlier today. Not surprising as I just returned from four days out of town, and airplane rides. so far, nothing horrible just a scratchy throat and a very runny nose. Probably began with both yesterday.
ReplyDeleteHappy birthday, Jim!🥳

ReplyDeleteHave a very Happy Birthday, dear Jim! How wonderfully well you are doing; I hadn't realised you were quite so magnificently Senior. I enjoyed your quadrille, and also both of the contrasting photos.
ReplyDeleteHappy birthday Dr Jim. Providence's blessings extended to the chosen few with long life is a special privilege.

I need to get out my broom. Our cabin is surrounded by spider webs!
ReplyDeleteHappy birthday, Jim. You appear to be staying young in heart and mind.
ReplyDeleteHi Jim! Feeling a bit better today and realizing I am going to go stir crazy inside for five days! Hoping I test negative soon. Thanks for your kind words.
