  8. I recognize that kind of a day weather-wise...it's called soft weather in Ireland and the road go on for ever...my poem is hope in despair...hope it fits.

  11. I'm up for the Magpie! This one seemed straightforward at first ...but required a shift in my thinking to get what I got. And to my fellow Magpiers, I apologize for not making the rounds and commenting lately. It's a dynamic reality, as the saying goes, and I am just barely keeping ahead of the curve. I do appreciate everyone who has stopped by the Gumbo and dropped some comment love on my scribblings! Thank you!
