We ventured to The Tannery, the much lauded eatery in downtown Dungarvan for a late dinner and have ALL the comments. #thoseshotsthough #desserttogo (at Dungavan)

on my knees to you a plea to smite to me a request for peace for me, and for you too joined by a call to you a meeting of death to me a union of life for me, and for you too scarfed to you a hidden oppression to me an open freedom for me, and for you too in my bones a shadow-filled fear enclosed within walls for me, and for you too

covered by wood chips a concoction of death and decay taken by storm for me, and for you too insufficient to you what i cannot be to me what i cannot achieve tell me, how do i become enough for me, and for you too

Our first ever collaboration together. Thank you, thoseshotsthough for the wonderful half. thoseshotsthough in regular text, me in italics.

Go ahead, make my day

Dirty Mike?  Let me elaborate.  Since the vast majority of you are ever so slightly younger than I and may not recognize the line, that’s Clint Eastwood and his Classic Dirty Harry Character.  Now here’s where our paths diverge. While he was about to introduce someone to the business end of a 44 magnum, I rather non violently simply wish to thank a couple of friends who made mine. Thank you Aurette for the lovely hijack of my little “She Smiled” poem, and ditto to thoseshotsthough for the wonderful poem written for me.  I’ll be sharing both later and I’m currently working on a top secret project with a certain feline friend.  That’s enough for now, and this is where I normally write “if no one’s told you yet today”, and of course I do love you, but today I want to close with a special request.  As you can clearly see, it takes but a little effort to make someone smile, so please, go ahead make my someone’s day.   Love to all. Most of us cannot do great things, we can only do small things with great love. Mother Teresa

Across the seas I roam, lost without a map. Waiting for you to call me home.

Other than the two poems I aim to upload every day, I'm starting a new series called wild-ink, which includes late-night free writes and motivational messages for you all - I hope you find it inspiring or thought-provoking. Or at least enjoyable.

share the onelove.
