Yay Or 'Neigh'?

 


I laugh in the teeth of danger,
as long as there's hay in my manger.
Drop by anytime, and it will be fine.
I like to say 'Hi' to a stranger!

Fun Thoughts For A Monday Morning

Tess gave us another B & W photo to set our imaginations going this week, as befits that black and white Magpie bird which figures in her blog title. I tend not to see things in black and white, so here's where my Friedlander photo details took the Jinksy mind...

Water Music


Colour me blue in shades of rain or sky
when clouds scud in window-painted reflections
on clear, glass-green panes of light, and rills
of singing water rush a stream of music
in waterfall cascades about my ears;
liquid thoughts to flow and feed the muse
who waits in arid expectation of life
filled to the brim with their soft sounds…
