BLAST FROM THE PAST & THANKFULS

Thoroughly Poetic Thursday

Teddy and Angel Sammy selected a really fun inspiration photo today for their weekly poetry challenge. Unfortunately, I was not up to the challenge. I feel this week’s poem is not up to parr, but I always want to support our friends at Two Spoiled Cats by posting a poem each Thursday.

So…here’s the photo and my poem.

 

Bathing Beauties?

Are these bathing beauties or just
Ladies making a fashion faux pas?
Though not a fan of string bikinis,
These get-ups are far more ghastly.
One girl has a boo boo on her knee.
That’s probably why she didn’t win.
She looks delighted just the same.
Maybe being a runner-up was a surprise.
Or did she meet some special guy,
Who thought her quite appealing?
After all…beauty is subjective.

Please pop over to Two Spoiled Cats to read Angel Sammy’s poem. He transmits it from the Rainbow Bridge to Teddy, and it is always purrfect. You also can find links to other poems in the Comment section.

Thankful Thursday

We are joining the Thankful Thursday blog hop hosted by our friend, Brian. If you would like to participate, post on your blog for what you are thankful, then click on the badge at the left to link up to the hop.

Dad Tom and I remain thankful we are virus free.

I am super thankful that while Dad Tom was not home, I finally was able to free Sawyer’s head from under the radiator while he was in the throes of a massive seizure on Monday. It was so scary. I was certain either he or I would strangle him. He seems to be okay; though, taking a bit longer to totally recover.

Kitties Blue, Dad Tom and I are especially thankful that our host Brian’s dad, Terry, is home from the hospital and his heart is okay!
