LISBETH’S BIRTHDAY THANKFUL & POETRY

Thankful Thursday

GUESS WHO FORGOT TO SCHEDULE OUR POST BEFORE SHE WENT TO BED LAST NIGHT? GOOD HELP IS SO HARD TO FIND THESE DAYS!

 

Lisbeth asked to be first up today with thankfuls. She received some terrific birthday gifts from her thoughtful and generous boyfriend, Charles, and his mom, Inge. But she wasn’t the only one. Charles and Inge also sent a birthday gift for Astrid, as well as all the Kitties Blue and me.We are all so fortunate to have Charles and his wonderful family in our lives. Here are a few photo of Lisbeth with her gorgeous hand-crocheted blanket and toys.

 

 

We have a couple of other things for which we thankful, including the continued kind and supportive comments and cards regarding our grief over Mau receiving his wings. Each of you is special to us.

Finally, I arose early enough on Tuesday  to be a first commenter again on the Tuesday Teaser at Two Spoiled Cats. One again, however, I had to share this distinction with three others. I received another of these cool badges.

 

Kitties Blue and I are participating in the Thankful Thursday blog hop hosted by Brian. To join us, post on your blog for what you are thankful, then click on the badge below to go to Brian’s Home and enter your link.

Thoroughly Poetic Thursday

Thursday is one of my favorite days of the week, as I love writing poetry. And it is particularly fun when I have to use my imagination to create something referential to the inspiration photo provided.

Here’s this week’s photo and my poem.

 

 

This chapel on the hill
Has fallen into disrepair.
It looks as if the congregants
Have maybe ceased to care.
How odd to see a burning light—
Perhaps a person does still come
To worship alone and say a pray
For a very special someone.
