X, Y, and Z

Letters degrade into literary Xerosis  

Skies fade to Yellow
As I finish
Not with a Zing
but with a dull thud.
BaZinga!!

A To Z Challenge 2016

What a Zany Ride!

To YoU

I've been struggling to reach the sun.

I may be rising above Under now,

May we always have color

and an abundance of wishes.

Thank you, Faithful Readers.

A to Z Challenge

Q, R, and S

Quickly but not quietly they competed.

The Starter pistol fired again and again.

Stop watches Started and Stopped as they Raced.

Hurdles were conQuered.

Batons carried.

Staying in their lane

they gave it their all

unQuestionably

Spiritually

and physically. 

Sadness came.  This may be the last Track meet I see with Andrew as a Senior.  It will be the last I see many of these competitors.  Hopefully they take the Track lessons with them...Run in your own lane, overcome hurdles with grace, follow the rules, save a little extra for the sprint and always, always give it your best Spiritually and physically.

To all Seniors everywhere, Congratulations.

For A to Z Challenge.

Much Ado About Nothing

The garden grows.  

Much like Shakespeare's play a garden can be a comedy. 

The plants have survived my treatment and the seeds have grown well.  A good salad Moves closer to the kitchen with lettuce, radishes and onions. The cold weather plants thrive but seem to be sitting still.

Time to plant Melons and 'Maters.  Nothing tastes better than home grown.

Life On A Log With Liquid...L

Little creatures often go unnoticed,

The Carpenter Ant searches for the Lost

as the Granddaddy Long Legs wonders how he got so wet.

All Life is precious.

Enjoy the Little things.

Kharma A K Word

If my circumstances reflect my actions I need to become much Kinder.  In the last two months my Canon died and required 44 emails, almost two months, two shipments and numerous calls to have warranty repair completed.  Andrew's truck motor has blown (Ford).  My printer doesn't work (Canon).  My computer (Alien-Dell) blue screened. Andrew's phone (Apple iPhone 6S Plus) has stopped working two days after unconditional return (Verizon), warranty does not cover it since there is a scratch on it and insurance has a hundred fifty copay.  I would not ask me for a recommendation on any of these brands nor on their company's customer service.  I would not be KIND.

On the brighter side of K there are Klingon, my favorite, Worf

Koi

and my Ki-Anne.

Inconsistency

"In The Beginning", in my opinion, is one of the best opening lines of all times.  I shall borrow it today...In the beginning I signed up for A to Z Challenge then that insecure person I TRY to keep hidden showed up again.  She (crazy bitch) took my name off the list.

Today I try to catch up, make a come back, a turn around...all those things you do after a total fall into a stew of apathy, banality, complacency, detachment, emotionlessness, futility, grouchiness, halfheartedness and insensitivity well seasoned with a big dash of  jack-assed-ness (taking me from A to J in one post).

May the waters be clear

and my thoughts become focused.

Many thanks.
