Thankful Thursday
I am starting off with thankfuls today, as my poem is truly lame.
∗ Stinky is thankful for everyone who shared Periwinkle’s and his adventure on Tuesday.
∗ I am thankful for sun. Even if it is cold and windy, as it has been for a few days, the sun always puts me in a better mood.
∗ I am particularly thankful for my friends. My friend of 39 years, Mary Jane, took me to lunch last week to celebrate my birthday. After we came home, she took a couple of selfies with Kitties Blue (Kizmet and Misty May). If you have been following us for a while, you may recall that Mary Jane was Mau’s human girlfriend.
∗ Kitties Blue and I are thankful for each of you who follow and support us.

Thoroughly Poetic Thursday
I almost didn’t have a poem for this week’s challenge, which is hosted by Angel Sammy and Teddy from Two Spoiled Cats. Just looking at the inspiration photo made me dizzy and nauseous, and I definitely couldn’t see a way to believably add one of Kitties Blue to it.
I am not a fan of heights or crowds, so one would never find me on a huge cruise ship like this or on a sky-high diving board.
Sky-High Insanity
This is completely insane.
Even if I don’t break my neck,
I’ll never do it again.
Accepting the dare was foolish.
I just didn’t want to appear mulish
By refusing to take the chance
To prove I’m a total bad ass.

If you’d like to try writing some poetry, check out Two Spoiled Cats (by clicking on the poetry badge) for next week’s inspiration photo. Please read Angel Sammy’s poem when you visit. He sends it to Teddy each week from the Rainbow Bridge, and I can guarantee you that it won’t be lame.
Thanks for joining us today. We’ll be back tomorrow with some fill-ins.
We couldn’t do a poem this week cause Mom couldn’t look at the picture without having a panic attack, BOL! You did a great job, though. And how nice your friend loves your kitties!!
Those are all really nice thankfuls and such sweet photos too. I liked your poem but I sure wouldn’t like to be up there either. Thanks for joining our Thankful Thursday Blog Hop!
Sweet photos of your friend. Cute poem. XO
Those are some great selfies!
Great thankfuls and it was fun seeing Mary Jane. That photo makes us super dizzy too!!!

Happy Belated Birthday! Not fond of heights here, either! I love views of mountains for instance, but going up mountains or other heights, not so much. The sun and sun puddles, we always love that!
Happy belated birthday Janet!
Heights are not my thing either- get dizzy eating a double decker sandwich – HAHA.
It is a good poem.
Selfies with cats sound like the perfect birthday. Happy belated birthday, Janet!
That photo didn’t make me want to be poetical about it. As with others, not my cuppa tea.
Lovely selfies of your friend. I would rather appear mulish than go up to those crazy heights!
Great shots of your friend Mary Jane with two of the Blues Cats! We think your poem is great – and just looking at the photo makes us dizzy too….can’t even imagine anyone wanting to dive from that height – hope she’s well insured!
Hugs, Pam and Teddy too
Well bon anniversaire for sure…you made it to 40?
Those are sweet ‘selfies’!
Though I too have many thoughts about that photo prompt, I still have yet to come with anything poetical! LOL!
