Monday Cheating & Hope from the Shadows

What to post when you have 10 minutes?? Well, you simply copy an old post many have never seen before. This was written by El SpeedCat over a year ago ...

Oils meld on canvass
colors blend and reflect
streams flow to rivers, and then to sea
my road writhed
I turned
the pale ship moved out from port
warm rays with hope jumped from shadows
then lifted salt from my wound
ease and comfort overtake
seizing time and spirit

I awake


Monday Cheating

Hi Speedy Recycledcat!

Do Recycled Posts save electrons like Recycled Paper saves trees? :~)

In 10 minutes, U used 0.01119 kWh of electricity versus 0.078 kWh of electricity to recycle paper.

Based on this, you can recycle 7 posts every 10 minutes to equal the power of saving trees! :~D

Yeah....some time on the water would do me some good too.

I liked this, Speedy. Very nice. :)

My favorite part---"warm rays with hope jumped from shadows
then lifted salt from my wound."

I liked that twist with the image of rubbing salt in the wound to having hope take it out again.

You definitely have a poet's soul. :)

Happy Tuesday to you!
