She looks like a Gertrude. Then again, I think Ethel would be the second best name for her. Hahaha
I find your piece to be more humorous than nature, but that is my opinion.

Lorna,
Loved listening to Danny Kaye...especially the part where he rolls his rrrs! When I taught ITALIAN and SPANISH, rolling the rrrs was part of our lesson!
Beautiful peonies! Is this a pic before the storm?
Love this...
“Holding sway over their court
Of stately greenery”!

Very regal!

Video didn\'t work for me but I love your little poem - they are lovely flowers and it\'s just a shame they don\'t last for long.

Goldfinch60 said:

I too enjoy my coffee, Colombian for me. Good fun write and I can understand the cartoon very well as I used to work in computing before I retired and coffee was our life blood.

SLR said:

One of my favorite addictions. All day, every day. Almost every kind I\'ve tried. (Except hazelnut, nasty stuff!) Love this one! Working in any kind of garden is hard work so you definitely deserve a free day to just relax and enjoy the day.

Thanks for sharing LORNA ~ I like Jamaican Blue Mountain ~ we have a Deli that stocks it and roasts and grinds it to order ! The aroma is as good as the taste ! I drink it black with one sweetner ~ I have to watch my figure ~ I have a coffee maker in my office which I keep perking ! Staff & Students come in in all sorts of moods but the aroma of JBM perking ~ puts them all in a good mood and makes life easier ~ especially if I offer them a cup ~ which I always do ! Coffee forges great relationships ! People who don\'t drink coffee are (in my book) Aliens or Robots or Mormons ! Love FRANK\'S DISK it was released 40 years before I was born and I have heard it and other versions ~ great song for COFFEEOPHILES ! In my experience the best places in Europe for Coffee are Holland & Italy ~ never a bum perk ! In America you can now get a good cup of coffee everywhere (weakish Colombian ?) but Bill Bryson says that since Starbucks opened you can\'t get an EXCELLENT cup of coffee anywhere ! Thanks for caring ~ Yours BRIAN I have collected Coffee Beans in Mexico (Puebla) and roasted and ground them ~ we don\'t normally grow coffee in the UK ! Thanks for caring ~ Yours BRIAN Love the cartoon ~ ANGELA is half Spanish and loves Coffee but thankfully not the Machine !

This piece is hilarious. It just happens to be morning, and I just happen to be drinking my coffee as I read this poem. I too would usually rather not be disturbed when drinking coffee.

Know just how you feel Lorna - gardening is darned-hard work and the next day has to be a holiday for me too - - love the Frank number on coffee - - - have a good hot bath and rest today my friend.

And it has to be Ethiopian Arabica - none of those blends served up in so-called coffee houses. Love the write Lorna.

Wanting To Go With You

Love cannot die yet this set of poignant questions has to be asked when a loved one has to say a goodbye - - a heart-tug of a read dear Lorna.

Love the write Lorna and dear old Joe to go with it. A friends son was married to his daughter - he\'s just the same in real life.

Who Put Me Here?
Laura🌻 said:

Lorna,
A great second read after the first... “Wanting To Go With You”(this one made me a bit sad)!
“Who Put Me Here?” gave me a chuckle and yes...a bee can still sting when dead!
Love the cartoon and “Dust in the Wind”(great song)!

You’re at the top of your poetic game again! 😊

Loved the CARTOON & the SONG ~ Thanks for sharing LORNA ~ I didn\'t ask to be born either ~ but I chose my MA & PA well and I have inherited a good \"Pair of GENES !\" My DAD\'s intellect and my MUM\'s empathy ~ excellent !

Indecisive House Wrens
Goldfinch60 said:

Glorious write, we have the occasional wren in our garden but no nests. We do have a blackbirds nest in our laurel bush though and it is stopping me cutting it.
