Michael,

A beautiful splash of colors those flowers do make! Are they all planted in one pot?

A fine short sartorial write to which I agree!

Ahhhhhhhh MISTER EDWARDS ~ The ubiquitous TIE ~ I have over 50 for all my Clubs & Societies ! I can turn up naked provided I\'m wearing the right Kipper Tie and it covers my Tackle !

They threw Him from the Nudist Club
And here\'s the reason WHY
Because He turned up on parade
Wearing His Old School Tie !

I\'m what the Americans call a GREETER @ Church today. So despite the Weather I am booted & suited ~ Van Heuston long sleeved Shirt (broad blue stripe) and a Blue Royal Society of Chemistry (A very Spiritual Organisation !) TIE ~ just hitting the waistline. At work (remember that !) I always wear a tie for Meetings ~ Interviews ~ Formal Dinners (A Bow Tie if I am Chef de Rang) and if I visit other Colleges as a MODERATOR etc etc. So on balance I am still a TIEMAN for 50% of the time. An interesting SUBJECT ~ My Sister always buys me a TIE @ Christmas one of which plays JINGLE BELLS when least expected ~ SUCH FUN. Thanks for sharing ~ love the Flowers ~ I have some Ties like that that my Granddad wore in the 60\'s FLOWER POWER ! Every blessing ~ BRIAN TIEMAN !

A fine write Michael. I hardly wear ties. Feel like I\'m being hanged, especially in this weather.

Back in the hood where the undesirable deals are constant...unfortunately!

Michael,

Great poem! Love this idea of shuffling words! This reminds me of the technique I’d use for the “shy” writers when I taught elementary schools! We’d call it the “word game”...not very original, but they liked it and made them write! The aim was accomplished!

Beautiful flowers!

Random happenings can produce serious poetry - good thoughts here Michael - - - am now off to tumble my shelved books and see what words come up to shuffle. Great stuff again.

The nuttiness draws near - October and Hastings. There\'s one in NZ. A Plymouth too (see Brian & Angela recent poem with map).
I could celebrate it there - on me own! Ya would not have to listen to my ramblings on then.

I never knew some much happened in August! Does coruscating and crenellating only happen in August?!
*gets out dictionary!*

What a well observed and beautiful description of light\'s ability as August burgeons growth. The word coruscate is so apt - - lovely first read of my day.
