Colors flow like rain,
Birds take flight as wild winds blow,
Perfect summer storm.

Rustic Simplicity
I was excited to take part in this prompt (almost a day late), so I scanned through my images thinking I would find something rustic, like a tree in the woods. I saw the folder with scanned family photographs and found this one of my great great grandfather, and thought it would be so cool for the prompt! Is that rustic or what? And, oh, the simple lives they must have led… From Laboratory to Consumer!
About a month ago I started digging around the internet to work on a family tree, but I’ve barely scratched the surface so far. I think I made it to my great great grandparents on my mother’s side of the family (the Scots-Irish side), so I have a long way to go with her family and then it’s on to my Dads side (his grandfather pictured above).
Talk about a writing prompt; wouldn’t it be fun to write a story based on what you can learn through your family’s history? Hmmm. That’s something to think about. Anyway…
I just thought this would be a fun image to share.
RDP Thursday: Rustic Simplicity
Say what?
The dictionary is my friend,
I’m never without meaning.
The thesaurus is a wizard,
Turns “picking” into “gleaning.”
And when I’m feeling feisty,
Schmutzwortsuche’s how I play it.
I’m never at a loss for words,
I just don’t know how to say it.
Word of the Day Challenge: Schmutzwortsuche
(shmootz-VOHRT-zoo-che)
Verb: Looking up rude words in the dictionary.

In my Dreams
The 70’s to Today
A Life in Rap
Gallivanting, and
Bar hopping.
Living it up, and
Hotel bopping.
Race with the Joneses,
Some name dropping.
A 401K, and
Wife swapping?
Dieting fads, and
Pill popping.
Sucking it up, with
Sugar free topping.
Trade bra for a mask,
Boobs flopping.
Zoom meditation, and
Online shopping.
