Tonight's Poet Corner: Sonnet Solstice #41

The Twenty-Third Escapade by Belinda Roddie The twenty-third escapade is something that occurs annually - just begun. It starts with baked goods, luscious cakes, sweet pies, and other loaded calories, then moves onward to gifts and fancy wishes while your path in life grows deeper into grooves that you will travel circularly like a needle in a vinyl record. Shall an existing love continue its growth, and will family stay strong? And friends? And long-term goals etched deeply into the folds of gravy memory oozing gray whims? The adventure's the best part, and, still quite young, you'll know to make twenty-three just right.

Today's OneWord: Fractures

"It seems that you received various simple fractures up and down your left arm. Which leaves me with one question." "Yes, doctor?" "What did you do, have a hammer precisely crush each spot from your elbow to your wrist?" I blinked. "No...it was just a game of piñata gone bad." "I see," the doctor muttered. "Happy Birthday, by the way." "Thanks," I grinned, waiting for him to wrap me up.
