Her

howling,

stomping,

tearful

tantrum done,

the sky is blushing

with embarrassment.

    I think there is a major tantrum coming up the coast this weekend, called “Hurricane Arthur.”
    However, I don’t think it is supposed to bring anything to the Virginia area but rain.

    In the wee hours of this morning I reposted one of my poems from my third upcoming book. Right out the box, you were there with a posted “Like.” Thank you for your early morning encouragement of my work. Have a fun and safe fourth (In the event some folks in your area celebrate it on the part of the U.S).

      lol Yeah. I went to bed at 3:00 a.m. here in BC, which is 6:00 a.m. in New York, and after I finished my word count quota on my current WIP, I was reading blogs before I went to bed. 🙂

    I’m ready for the tantrums to stop for a bit. Soggy here. Loved it.

    Haha. Something tells me this was inspired by a child?

    I’ll think of this lovingly next time my son doesn’t want to do something 🙂 It’s stuck in my head now.
