The Meaning of Life

 Hey Karl you know you once said:


"The greatest burden a child must bear 

is the un-lived life of its parents? How do 

we solve this?"


"The answer lies within my statement Vic; 

Go out there and live! - and tell your 

your friends to do the same."


Ok thanks Karl - am doing my best and 

sure I'll let them know.



High on Orange Juice

When I was 14 -15 I used to go to the local village disco with some pals. One time my friend asked me: 


"You know you only ever order plain orange juice yet 

you seem to get more of a high from it than the 

rest of us on alcohol. How's that?"


I had no explanation, hadn't even been aware of this till she pointed it out.

Is anyone else out there like this?

Tornado

As in so many homes:

Mini tornado force of nature children

Relentlessly seek out something 

new to do

Calmly tearing through the house 

on a mission to make - lord only

knows ... 

And what a to do!

Wearing one down with endless debate

like an ongoing Depp/ Heard Case. Whew!

Then Whirring

Into /out of -  the kitchen again

Leaving Macaroni splattered floors

and doughy tomato sauce

on kitchen cupboard doors

Lopsided fringes slowly and  

CARE-FULL-Y cut 

with blunt nail scissors!


These endless mad-science experiments

Interspersed with long moments of silence... 

Then happily emerging with

Vivid turquoise cakes, Perfumed pens, 

sinks clogged up with paints 

A riot of acrylics casually smeared into

brand new pyjama sleeves.

And always, 

with this tornado child?

Always there is more!

The Cleaner


The Cleaner found a five pound note

And gave it back to Madam.

She carried on her merry way

Whilst seeking out her Adam


Next she saw an aeroplane,

To her - it looked all right

Yet who is to say? 

For either way

It was in blue & white




Duvet

Hey You!

How to put on a duvet cover? In short

In Side out

Grab the edges of. The Shortest side:

One In each hand

Match and attach both the cover and duvet 

Flip whole cover over

Voila!

You're done

Well Done You πŸ˜ƒ 



Cherries

Va! Va! Voom Jim! 

Back in 2016

Was when I found you on a trip to 

ONE of my places of worship. 

This place we call the LI-BRA-RY

For an analog girl this was my Pearl.

Better yet you see 

the Internet there was free,

I think we have Carnegie to thank for this

This medium that's existed before 

web 1 2 3.


Anyway Jim! There I found 

Your weighty tome Sitting 

proudly amongst the proud and the most fitting.

As I sprinted through the non-fic books,

Impossible (it was) to ignore your Red Bluck looks!

Couldn't believe 

My joy and my luck,

as your 1000 perspired pages kept my mind 

Sweet, Inspired and Clean


Ever Yours,

Cordelia Gray





Percolate

Darling Friend I forgot to mention -

Had to put pen to paper 

after a coffee or two,

And thereafter the words flew - 


Although you fill my mind 

with your wisdom and kind,

Although I gratefully receive these

like manna from the sky,

Yet questions for me do still arise


Yes we see many issues in a similar way,

Yet preaching to the converted 

(as you yourself would say)

And as I now realise is probably not 

always the best way to gain...


Sometimes (for me at least)

Truth and facts need time to percolate

though the mind's filters

In order to create new inputs 

that can then be brought forth to

shine and to glitter.

Inputs that, in substance remain

philosophical truths

audacious gains X

Jelly Babies


Five Little Jelly Babies,

Waking up at me,


Sadly Peering though the screen 

What exactly do I CCCCC?

How did they get here? 

From whence and from where?

I'd love to make 'em smile again

But first I need a chair - 

for them or for me?

For the latter - silly!

'Cos pink blue grey black or green, 

They are all as chewy 

as can Bee

Klossy Beads

Zoomy Virgin sits Awaiting πŸ˜Ά

Hunched over expectantly 

Zoomy Virgin sits a-Peering 

into Zoomy Boomy Screen


And what is this she starts to see?

What is Peering back at she?

Peering back through Zoomy lens:

Sits Gloomy roomy in a laptop dress. 

Just before da conference!


So. Who can gloom-roomy be ?

Sitting oh! so shadowy?

Wait a minute! That can't be - 

But oh my goodness SHE is me

Why didn't she -  plan this better? 

Too late now to stop and fretter


Taking notes on NOT-taking note pens,

Said pens clucking with great reluctence

Then. Peering into digit lens,

Bobbed up heads in attendence

Faces Popcorn poker straight 

And of course no one is late


Some sip sup from office cuppso

Newbie zoomie in suspense

Fidgets, nervous  making sense:


"Ssh! It's time to mute!" 


Our Smoothie Zoomie lead announces

Sleek and Glossy 

Hair that bounces

Our Freshly Laundered leader leads,

From well-lit background

we hear jangle: 

Klossy Beads

Mocha Strudel

Mocha Strudel went to town,

Riding on baloney,

He blenderized his frown & gown

Whilst drinking

Mocharonee!



My Hat


Pop it on my head 

Neither skewed nor flat

Woven from the finest Moses Rushes

And that, is a flap-jacketed fact.


This hat of mine 

so shady you can dine on its

Brimming wide lazy Susan Asides

Its spinning plates filled with 

popsicle lolly-filled 

summery statesπŸ’™ 

 


Croissant

You shared your mid Morning 

Croissant with someone else!

Well - !

That's fine by me Sweetpea

After all Buttery Cupp's

Os can be pretty!

I'll just go pretend to not care.

And to not mind. Too much

 

That seeing you crunch on that 

Breakfasty lunch

Didn't hurt just a teeny tiny touch

Honey bunch.

But know what? Crunchy Coo? 

Know what I've decided to do?

Well I've decided to buy bags an' bags of 

Water-wise crackers

to hang out with

To keep me on trackers

So now I'm sip-supping  

Mugs an' mugs of VIPCo Fees 

as well as gallons an' 

Gallons of sweetelly Teas!


So if you please Sweetpeas 

don't you worry about me 'cos


I guess I'm ok  😐.  

      Yes. Feeling ok  πŸ˜‘

           No really! Not joking! 😊 

               Am feeling a-OK πŸ˜ƒ


And I hope you are too!

Feeling happy and not blue

And if that's not the case

Please remember this:

There is NOTHING!


A plate of hot fresh croissants 

and a chilled bottle of russet red Jam buns

Martini mixed 

won't cure.

 

Over and out from Kitty Crunch here

    Ever Yours,

        Apples & Pears

REAL CHARITY Grown Ups

The foundations begin at home
Accepting the blue, green, yellow,
black sheep of the family. First.

Real charity is active
reaching out to divided family members to 
unite, and celebrate 
Innocent occasions - 
Such as a toddler's birthday.

Real Charity Grown-ups
Never leave a toddler to 
celebrate her birthday alone 
When other family members are 
nearby. Such lack of Real Charity 
beggars. disbelief. disgust. 


Real charity begins in the
heart and soul. First.

Let's elevate those that build 
the foundations of 
Real Charity from 
the ground up 
Buttercup

Happy Wonderday


Belated Wonderday greetings!

to Lille Cutie Pie  

Wearing sky blue fruity and 

A bow-tie made

of white


Sitting on the summer's grass

Out amongst more frogs.


Joyful Lille child of grace,

Cy-cycling cakes go swirling

Like blueberry flakes upon

Orange pink plates for

Picture perfect 

little giggles!
