Dear followers and friends.

It feels beholden of me that I should say to thee, A thank you for visiting my page And for your likes and Your kind comments, Despite my advancing age Well I'm fifty two, so not that old a one. Old enough to remember the summer of 1969. But too young to have had any fun. My plan for my page is to try and entertain Your likes tell me You like what I do And to such kindness, one can only say, A hearty well meant thank you. Stick with me yet, And I'll try to go futher, and write stories that keep you entertained Or even paint an alluring picture Write you a rhyme. or play tune And sing a song at the same time. Now broken meter and broken rhyme this may be, but I think you may see that my efforts are surley well meant. So thank you followers,  friends and sharers and that too Is surely well meant.

For bread, kneading dough, Is really therapeutic I think you should  know.

The Tyranny of the Blog.

A blog has a tyranny, I must conclude. For having begun one strives to continue. Plots set in motion must be pursued, But sometimes demand time before issue, than one has carefully, with duty set aside. Feeling a duty to those who have read, And shown their approval for my effort, I try and entertain, at least in my head Working to post before followers desert Hoping that with my words they'll abide. But dear reader I must in honesty say, Sometimes a work needs a little more time, To consider the plot turns, in this or that way To find the right way for the design to chime, Writing just anything, does not fill with pride. So I ask your patience dear reader or follower, Stories will continue when inspiration comes. Please do not leave me here as a wallflower, with time  new issues the game soon plumbs, So stay with me, I will:  continue the ride.

Busy.

I've a busy day Lots to do, so I leave you This little Haiku
