Caribbean ~ Just For Fun #33

A fortnight to sail on the crystal blue sea, a fortnight to socialize or wander free.

To shop festive islands, to dine like a queen, to sun on the deck or a white beach pristine;

I know this vacation will be a true blast, depressing me only by passing too fast.

So while I'm away keep my kitty cat fed, but please be sure not to leave crumbs in my bed!

Dreaming ~ Just For Fun #32

Dreaming of butterflies chasing the sun, dreaming of green when the streams start to run;

dreaming of clouds floating high in the sky, birds weaving happily, soaring on high.

Dreaming of warmth with the onset of Spring, dreaming of flowers that make my heart sing;

dreaming of 'life' when the cold is no more, dreaming, I sigh, while ole Winter still roars.

Valentine ~ Just For Fun #31

Won't you be my Valentine, DEAR Rufus, for a day?

It won't be serious ~just for fun~ or like a game we'll play.

I can't 'commit', as you well know, but we are always friends;

so just today, and just for play, let's pen LOVE notes to send!

Snow Baby ~ Just For Fun #30

The snow is falling, cold and wet, to lay it's burden like a net.

The evergreens are bowing low, incumbent 'neath the heavy load.

I grab some fur, a velvet muff, my hands immured in silky fluff;

I shiver, still I laugh with glee, for I am such a snow baby!

Pink Peppermint ~ Just For Fun #29

Peppermint pink and peppermint red, visions of sugar plums in my head.

Sugar and spice and everything nice ~ making my list and checking it twice.

Wonder if Santa up in the "Pole" knows I've been good, a hopeful young soul . . .

Wishing for love ~for dreams to come true ~ wishing for happiness all the year through.

Plaid Magic ~ Just For Fun #28

Black of the night, Prussian blue with a sheen, Tyrian purple and ruffles of green;

silver so precious and crystals so clear, all mixed together for holiday cheer.

Prancing about in plaid magic today, I'm ready for fun, come what may, time to play.

I'm young for a time, only once, I've been told, so let me enjoy what this day may unfold!

Charms ~ Just For Fun #27

Sweet or Sassy is my name; sitting pretty is my game!

Flirty, charming, coy or shy? Hmmm.... let's watch the boys go by.

When I find the one I want, I will choose which charm to flaunt;

if it works, he'll come to me, just like nectar lures a bee!

Cocoa Sin ~ Just For Fun #26

Cocoa hot and cocoa cold; cocoa batters to infold.

Coffee, latte, mocha pie, liquored treats to tempt the eye.

Froths of milk and swirls of cream, bits of chocolate, Toffee Dream;

Ahhh, a world of cocoa sin lures me close and pulls me in!

Caramel Baroque ~ Just For Fun #25

Caramel apples tartly sweet, scurrying leaves around my feet,

scent of a bonfire, cooler breeze, debris from a copse that make me sneeze.

Indian summer, blazing trails, pitchers of cider, brewing ales;

just for a time I feel content in the crisp air as Fall is spent.

Black Onyx ~ Just for Fun #24

Against a palette black and white, my raven tresses match the night.

The onyx black of midnight skies illuminate the fireflies.

With eyes like brilliant peridot, my lids of plum and skin aglow,

I scan the sky for shooting stars or signs of love or distant Mars.

For somewhere out there, could there be, a special someone just for me?

Thus, I shall wear my very best, should such a suitor end my quest.

Freedom ~ Just for Fun #23

With Cherry Pie served a la mode on pretty plates of china Spode,

or Cherries Jubilee served cold (a patriotic dish, I'm told),

I'll celebrate my history and give God thanks for liberty.

With Flag Day in the month of June and July 4th to follow soon,

I'll wave my Freedom colors bold ~ red, white, and blue (and sometimes gold) ~

parades and picnics, fireworks grand, will be such fun across the land!

Come, Spring! ~ Just for Fun #22

So weary!! I'm so tired of cold! When will this frigid vigil end?

The bitterness of budding bloom now covered by another 'coat';

more hounding snow, a silent stealth, though pretty, an unwelcome friend!

'Tis time for color, sun 'n fun, for gardening, and boats afloat;

for dreaming, wand'ring, skies of blue, for eyes to feast on trees so green.

I've borne this tedious wait thru months of barrenness and dreary skies.

I'm ready NOW, "Come, Spring!" I say, no time to dawdle...linger...preen.

Ole Winter's weathered long enough ~ high time to make your grande reprise!

In such finery of springtime do I love to prance about!

Such a perfect foil for boredom from the winter's color draught.

Sherbet Frou-Frou ~ Just for Fun #20

Sherbets of orange or raspberry, or maybe even strawberry,

Such frothy blends of fantasy have always been such fun for me!

Shabby chic, I may well be, for lots of things appeal to me.

No haute couture, no brand new fare, just olden linens I can wear.

I have such fun in clothes like these, soft 'whispers' of a gentle breeze.

In Retro-spect ~ Just for Fun #18

Our days of youth may quickly pass as goals, careers, and 'things' amass.

Summer Breeze ~ Just for Fun #13

A walk by the sea on a warm breezy day is perfect for chasing the doldrums away.

My friends are out shopping or surfing the net, while I hunt for shells near my fav'rite inlet.

I'll kick off my shoes, getting sand 'tween my toes, the lapping waves soothing all worry or woes.

A treasure or two I may find for my bag, creating behind me a path of zigzag.

The sound of the surf and the gulls as they cry, might lure me to lie in the sand, watch the sky....

And if I am watchful while scanning the bay, perhaps a blue dolphin will pass by my way!

Feeling Blue ~ Just for Fun #12

Blue as the sky on a clear sunny day, blue as Forget-Me-Nots near the walkway, blue as a boat sailing swift in the bay,

I ... feel ... blue.

Blue as some blueberry pie à la mode, blue as a platter of fine china Spode, blue as hydrangeas, Old World dyer's woad ,

I ... feel ... blue.

Blue as a butterfly light on the wing, blue as a songbird enamored to sing, blue as a sapphire encased on a ring,

I ... LOVE ... BLUE!

Fragrant earth beneath my footsteps as the sun doth kiss my skin ~

There is not a morning sweeter than this one I linger in!

January magic, falling with the snow. Crystal prisms drifting, as the north winds blow.

Snowmen smiling bleakly with their eyes of coal, waiting for the children, mounds of snow to roll.

Skating on the ice pond, twirling fearlessly. Landing on my backside, laughing gleefully.

Sledding down the hillside, faster by the yard, catching gulps of snow spray, as the sled is jarred.

Who has time for sorrow, ennui, or 'blues', outside in my ski boots, ice skates or snowshoes!
