Spooky biscuits. I just read Jacobs latest before this and got serious deja vu. Love those little coinkidinks life throws at us.
Can so relate to this Chris. I grew up in an area where an invisible street boundary lay, separating us havenots from the haves. That's where all the posh birds came from, just like swans. They loved us bad boys. Ah, happy days

[Chris Shaw]

Lorry I love what you made of this. The posh birds in town, the swans when they were out and about. Pleased to hear they loved the bad boys. Funny that spooky biscuits. Real weird. Happy days having you back. :)

Achieve just wait. I'll have you all groaning into your coffee in no time. Speaking of which, I may post a little naughty today. I'm feeling a little boisterous and rambunctious... Both words you don't hear enough of these days. 🤓

[Chris Shaw]

Post away. You've got a fan here. Two great sounding noisy words you found there. I'm expecting something loud and noticeable :))

[Lorry]

You expect correctly 🤓

My goodness - thank you for getting back to me at such an early hour - for you. I figure it must be close to 4 in the morning where you are.

Your swan song or hyacinth?

[Chris Shaw]

My swan song Kent. Wonderful to watch those magnificent and stately creatures gliding on glass. Thank you.

Written in a short staza,
The fairy little tale,
It caught my attention,
And I read all over again.

Nicely penned, Chris.

[Chris Shaw]

Thank you Kay. This is a haiku which describes a nature scene in 17syllables. I very much appreciate your visit.

yes, Fairy said what i was going to say...
"elegance" here...on white...
the words on the page...so compact yet paints such a picture.

Ah your 'swan song' writ large in a nice haiku Chris. I can see those royal creatures floating upon the calm waters on a summer's day
