My heart is a vacuum
and in it a prickly pear.
It is nothing that I swallowed,
it was you who put it there.
In absence of sunlight
it grows and bares flesh
while spines follow limbs
to a fine found filament
of sugar frosted fingers
for my grip almost spent.
It purges heat and a punch
then I swallow it back,
that prickly pear
perhaps, I did put it there.
p.s. it really wasn't as grand as I thought it would be.

It doesn't take much.
It's so damn frustrating to turn the fucking news on every day, see people killing each other, see people fighting, blowing each other to pieces, it makes me really mad. I'm sure it does the same to the rest of you.
And to know it doesn't have to be like that is what's so frustrating. But no one is doing anything about it, so I say it needs to start somewhere. And what better place to start than with ourselves.
I like vacuums..and oranges
you are so right L...... a little kindness does go a long way!
right lovelies i have to depart now!
will catch some of you tomorrow!!
love to you all!

Excuse me? What was the snort for? Well?
Oh, boiled peanuts give me the heebies. And yeah, I can see the whole grits as oatmeal gone wrong thing. Have you ever had steel cut oatmeal? It's kinda weird too. And hi BC and Bella, and Elena, didn't mean any disrespect by the Yankee talk. :) I've been here almost 19 years and people still say "Where the heck are you from?"
Roll call!

Hey, at Cracker Barrel, that can be a real question sometimes!! I've gotten some gravy that a spoon would stand up in before! Old family story--one time my Nanny was sick, so Papa made the breakfast. The kids were complaining that he couldn't cook as good as her, he told them to "shut up and cut yourself another piece of gravy!"
I'm okay siobhan, thanks for asking.
Bye faraway, take care!
L,thank you for sharing.Your Grandmother must have been a great person.It's really inspiring.

Just putting that out there...

Carrie
Here is one of my favorite stories from living down in South Carolina...
My friend took me to meet her aunt. The woman was all upset because of the guy her daughter was dating. She just went on and on about him but for the life of me I couldn't figure out what was wrong with him. He sounded nice. Finally I asked. She looked at me and said, "Honey, he's a Yankee." She was dead serious. Then she asked me where I was from. Oh boy, that was fun. Since I'd been living there for several years I'd picked up a bit of the Southern accent so she really didn't know.

I do not need to add Pure to my name...it's just a known fact that I'm pure. Somethings don't need to be explained!!

Oh man Elena! My family isn't quite that bad, but Terry had to endure some ribbing. At least by then my Great Aunt had married a guy from New Jersey, so the "Yankee seal" had been broken. And then my brother had to go and top us both by marrying a girl from Japan! We'll get this family turned into a melting pot yet!
Oh, and I know Miranth lives in MI too, on her organic farm.
I'm pretty sure Mustard likes to remain mysterious, it's part of her charm. :)

mwhaha I have the blog to myself!!!
*sigh*
nah, I dont' have time to be devious todays my tutoring day,
but
ELENA!
so glad Jake came home! I was thinking about and prayed for him last night! :)
I had to go back through the comments to find if you'd said That's great news!
Setting examples is all any of us can do. From one small thing to the bigger things in life. Taking care of each other and having respect for others is so simple, yet, so difficult for some to comprehend.
Does this include NOT trying and failing ot post anonymously, calling people names, deleting it and then blaming other people for "hacking" you? You are thebiggest hypocrites.
Elena, I'm glad to hear your puppy is back safe and sound. Hi Ergo *waves*
Well Mayonaise, today is Earth day, so I decided to post a kinda long post on how people can help preserve our environment and to help Mother Nature. I hope you don't mind. This topic is something that I am slowly becoming really passionate about.
For anyone who is interested in going green and helping our planet one step at a time, here are a few websites that I am posting for more information, articles, and tips.
http://www.thegreenguide.com/products/
http://green.yahoo.com/
http://green.yahoo.com/Recycling
http://www.goinggreenmatters.com/
For anyone who is into natural and organic produce, I highly recommend Whole Foods. Here is the website link:
www.wholefoodsmarket.com
And here are a few great tips courtesy of Going Green Matters
Minimize time spent in the car. An easy way to help reduce those harmful emissions is to leave the car at home for short trips. Also, consolidating errands into one big trip is more beneficial than making several smaller trips from home and back. Carpooling to and from work is another way to contribute to the environment as well.
Unplug non-essential appliances. Many home appliances use low levels of energy even when they are turned off. Unplugging these appliances completely or plugging them into a power strip and turning the strip off are both ways to help reduce energy consumption.
Scrape that dish! Instead of rinsing a dish before placing it in the dishwasher, scraping it is just as effective and doesn't waste any water.
Go green on grocery bags. An innumerable amount of plastic grocery bags are disposed of every single day -- and the recycle rate is extremely low. Saving and re-using plastic grocery bags or getting a special cloth bag just for shopping are both great ways to be green.
Renewable Energy Credits (RECs): When a consumer purchases an REC they ensure that somewhere on the grid, someone is receiving the benefits of green energy instead of fossil-fuel power. Doing so can help push renewable energy to the forefront of consumption, and helps reduce carbon emissions.
Also check out www.idealbite.com for more Eco-friendly tips.
For parents, Moms, Moms-To-Be who are interested in purchasing organic and natural toys and clothing for their little ones, check out this link:
www.thelittleseed.com Courtesy of the TV Guide channel.
For anyone interested in purchasing organic jeans check out this site: www.oxygenrequired.com But please be aware that a pair runs anywhere from $150-$200. Also courtesy of TV Guide channel. Concerning the recycled grocery bags, there are some stores that are now selling reusable grocery bags for $.99. Target is one of the few big-chained retailers that are beginning to sell them for the low price of $1.49
If you would like to save money on your energy bills, you can also purchase CFL lights for about $3 or $4 each, depending on how many watts it uses; also, the design is much more cooler than a regular light bulb.
And if you need to dispose them, do Not dispose them in the garbage, due to containing the chemical Mercury. Instead, here are tips to dispose CFL lights properly and safely:
Recycle. Check if there is a local organization or government agency that takes CFL light bulbs. You also can visit earth911.org, or call them at (800) CLEAN-UP, for a list of disposal options. Another option is to contact your local waste management agency, and some stores including IKEA will take used CFLs.
Step2 Bag it. If there is no place to recycle your CFL light bulb, seal in a plastic bag and put it in the trash. Don't place a CFL bulb, or anything that contains mercury, in an incinerator.
Step3 Pay to get rid of it. Some companies will dispose of CFL light bulbs for a fee, usually somewhere between a quarter and 75 cents per bulb. Look in the Yellow Pages to find a local disposal company.
Step4 Sweep, don't vacuum, if a CFL light bulb breaks. Experts say there isn't much danger from the mercury, so just be careful not to cut yourself. Use rubber gloves to collect the shards on stiff paper or cardboard, and put the shards in a sealed plastic bag. You can use sticky tape or damp towels to collect the smaller fragments, then put the towel or tape into the sealed bag. Let the room air out for 15 minutes to remove any lingering mercury vapors. If there isn't a nearby window, use a fan to blow air out of the room.
For more tips on going green, you can check out the world wide web, and also the search engines, such as Yahoo and Google.
For more information on how to help endangered species, check out www.worldwildlife.org
You can also help in small ways by unplugging appliances that are not being used, such as the TV, radio, etc. and you ca also plant a tree, if you like.
That last quiz was NOT brought to you by the makers of the other quizzes, the ones you all call the Watchers. That was someone else who did the last one, probably a regular poster. Good job though Other Quiz person.
hi BC
I like all the quizzes anon, it was good to see some new questions about people, shows someone is paying close attention (which is a little creepy!)
Oh if anyone wonders my feral cat injury is healed up but scarred a bit and is still a bit hard underneath,
ergo- feral cat bait-proxy
That's good to know anon, because the Watcher anons creep me out.
Hey errbody!
Mayo,
What's it going be? You ready to take out the "Eyeball of Doom" yet?
If not, do you know anybody that will? ^_~
So what's going on people?
Nothing, I guess. O_o
Hi smokie
hi smoke!
I'm getting school lunch made and ready to go off to the gym and tutoring

Mercury, schmercury!
When I was a kid, a thermometer broke in my kitchen, and my cousin and I sat on the floor and rolled the mercury back and forth to each other. Looking back now, that's pretty scary. But, mercury is so cool.
Ha ha ha Star. Not when it makes you sick it isn't. How are you? :)
I'm groovy, BC. How are you doing?
Be back later. Take care Star, Smokie.
I'm doing good, really full, but good, thanks.
Hey guys!
I'm just checking out some NASCAR stuff. I didn't realize I could go to see a race on Sunday and then to MCR on Wednesday in Alabama.
DAMMMMNNNNNN!!!!!
How are you all?
Smoke! That's exciting. Are NASCAR tickets expensive?
That's good to know anon, because the Watcher anons creep me out.
BC, I am one of the watcher anons, and it was I who told you that this last quiz was not thought up by us. I wanted you to understand who you were talking to and what I was saying, hope this is clearer for you.
Kind of, depending on where you want to sit. I was checking out some for Daytona (Hey Fim!) and where I would want to sit it would be $145.00 a piece.
I don't have NASCAR money. :(
ok i'm off see you later!!
Bye Ergo!
Oh and hey WATCHER people!
O____O
Hey guys! I'm hoooome! How are you all? At home and chillaxing, I hope.
Wow, I have so not caught up. WTF? WTF? WTMFF?

If this was you, SS, thank you so much. That really means a lot to me. :D
And if it wasn't SS, thank you still, and it still means a lot to me.
Who was Kool Aid Pitcher? What other names does she post under?
Kapunua ---- Weaver Girl, Mrs. Lovett, Sei Shonigan, other writers and food
That made me LOL. ^___^
I was also the Spin Spin Sugar anon back in the day. Well one of them anyway. :)
Oh, and I can't believe that I got the Mayo question wrong! I totally took "porcelain and black as night" metaphorically. ;)
Wow, Smoke, that's steep.
I was looking online at opera tickets at the Met for my dad, and good seats are $295.00.
I should have expected that, though.
The opera I wanted to take him to is sold out, so I don't have to feel cheap about not getting them.
Hey there, Kapunua! I haven't seen you in like years and stuff! ^_^
Yeah, I mean damn. It's freakin' NASCAR! No wonder they give away millions of dollars every year in prize money.
JEEZ!
It would so be worth it though if Tony won. ^_^
(Shut up, Jr Anon. ^_~)
I know; I've hardly been here. Well, my Jo-chan left today and so the house is empty again, just me and my dogs. Awww. I don't get to see her for another few months so that sucks.
Whatchya guys doin'?
Not much. Just eating watermelon. You guys had fun this weekend, didn't you?
^_^
Oh Princess, you have no idea. I ate two pints of ice cream and about a pound of cookie dough. Then we just went shopping, watched movies, played video games and planted trees while listening to TBS. Yeah it was fun, she's an awesome kid at a really rough age where she can't talk to her parents or teachers, you know. Otherwise known as "fifteen." :)
Awwww! That's awesome!
I remember fifteen. O_o
Two years later I was freaking married. WTF was I thinking?
GAHHHHHH!
Hey, Jules!
Smoke, I didn't know that NASCAR is the most watched sport in the US.
I will admit I watch it, and get a little excited that I might see cars crash. That's sick, right?
I just scarfed down penne with oil, garlic and asparagus.
NOM NOM NOM.
SIX SIX SIX! MINE!
Heya Star! Sent you an email, and lemme just say, I gots another college to call tomorrow. I don't want to lose momentum!
Smoke, oh my god. I can't even imagine it! This kid, she's a very young fifteen, you know what I mean? Super smart, but just keeps to herself and more or less thinks that the real world is gross.
In some ways she's older than her peers because she's so smart and she has no use for what she considers to be "typical teenage behavior" but mostly she's just very naive.
And she doesn't want to go on any dates until she's in college. (She says this NOW. O_o )
Star,
It is kind of bad that it's exciting when they have a wreck.
I admit it though, it really is.
That and when they fight. ^_^
Jules,
Good. Keep the ball rolling!
Oh, Smoke, see, we've only been watching here and there, so I've never seen a fight. That kind of stuff riles me up too, even though it shouldn't.
Oh, it's awesome! I've watched Tony sling some helmets and go after some people. ^_^
I'll be back in a bit! Gotta cook some supper.
PJ's in blue said...

Mayo,
Can you feel the friendship that has grown from this place, i can and just want to say thanks.
And to tell you that when i feel homesick, i read at your place and feel so much better, i laugh at the jokes and at myself cause no one is with me and i still laugh out loud, as i think you do when you just read.
I have to go now, i am tired and sleepy and miss my family, and yes i mean this family here!
My heart to yours,
BIGGGGG HUGGGGS
Sdock, Smoke, and Sister, I miss you ladys so much, faraway, i miss you too, and mustard ect...ect..ect!
Night Kiss!
Pj
Jeez, I acted like I was gonna be gone for hours cooking. O_O
That didn't take quite as long as I thought.
Am I all alone now?
Mayo, you know how I get when I'm all alone. I get paranoid and shit.
>_>
<_<
<_>
EEEEEEK!
Okay well, let me just take a minute here and talk to my friend, SS.
^_^
Have I talked to you today? I don't think so. O_O
I have a terrible memory.
Anyhoo....
I hope you are doing better today. We're all still working on it, dude. I know I am. You make me stop and think about things. That's something that I'm not used to doing. Thank you. Thank you for believing in us. That's all I know to say. ^_^
Truly.
XOXO
SMOOOOOOOOOOOOKE!!!
I scared you, didn't I?
EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEKKKKK!!
*smacks Solly upside the head
Don't scare me like that! Damn you!
Sorry Smoke, I took the dogs out. Then I fed my one dog who hadn't finished his dinner from before. Then he threw up his dinner. Then he tried to eat it back down. WTF, man, why do dogs do that? That ain't even right.
Hellooooo Solly!
WTF?
*Stomps on Smoke's toe*
Juuuuuuuuuuuules!!
Yay!!
We gonna chat up a stizzorm tonight or WUT.
*pulls Solly's hair
Ummm, that would be a yeeeaaahhhh!
*bends back Smoke's pinky finger*
You beeeyottch.
*picks up hairbrush and slaps Solly across the back of the head
Um, so like, that didn't hurt.
I'm gonna tell you guys's Ma.
*sings*
Dancin' with myself
oh oh
Dancin' with myself
Oh really?
*smacks Solly across the back with the hairbrush so hard it snaps*
So, like if that didn't hurt, I'm biting you. >_<
Please don't Jules. She will make us sit in chair, side by side, holding hands until we say we are sorry and that we love each other.
TORTURE!
Billy Idol!
*does best Billy Idol impression
It's a nice day for a white wedding......
Smoke,
You hit like a girl who is not Jules.
*smiles and runs away laughing*
Muhahahahah!
Yeah, she really would. That used to be so bad when we were little.
Act like you love each other, damnit!
Hahaha!
Rock the cradle of love....
I almost sung that Bret Michaels style.
Rock the house of love
Rock the house of love
yeah, or something like that.
I'm off for my bath.
Catch you guys laterzzzz.
Smoke,
I am going to use up all the hot water. Muahahahh!!!
Hello Socky!
Smoke:
Yeah, she really would. That used to be so bad when we were little.
Act like you love each other, damnit!
Hahaha!
That is awesome!
I am an only child, but I have a girl cousin who lived up the block from me. If we acted up at dinner, my mother would scream and take our soda away. Loss of soda at dinner was a major bummer.
Heeheee! That's actually so cute!
SS, thank you, I hope you are safe.
Hello PJ, missing you to :)
I hope everyone had a nice day.
Bye and have a nice evening !
xx
Fim! Where are you going?
Hey guys. :)
How's it goin'?
*flings watermelon seed at Mustard
Sorry, Mayo. I'll pick'em up later. We're gonna plant a garden and a watermelon patch. ^_^
MUSTTTAAARD!
How are you?
Blogger is eating my comments.
I'm unhappy about it.
S&V, I gotchoo a pair of extra-cushiony shoe insoles & a package of band-aids.
An unconventional gift, perhaps. But I care about your health and well-being! ^_^
Oh yeah, I also got you some sparkly pink nail polish.
FImble and Splash and Star toooooo! :D
Got a few more things to do then I'll be on AIM, 'kay? How 'bout you guys?
Hey Star!
Hey Smoke!
Hello Fimble?!?! Why are you leaving for the night?
Hello Jules!
Hello Sdock!
Awwwww!!! Blogger is a botch.
And hello RW!
RW!
I was just thinking about you!
I was sittin' here wondering what you had bought me today. ^_^
I ♥ you like dis---------much. ^_^
NOM NOM NOM!
Stop, hungry Blogger
You are eating Mustard's posts
Stop, Blogger, please stop!
Wanna know something?
'Cause it's pretty meffing hilarious.
Hey RW!
Yes, I'm up for AIM.
RW,
How was work?
Better, I hope.
I do!
Mmmmkay.
I'll tell you guys.
I dropped my hairbrush into the toilet this morning.
>_<
And then I thought about Mayo. And how he would probably throw a pissy-fit. ;)
Then I laughed.
Hi, all :D
Star, I did have a better day today. Sort of. Work went fine, but I had a headache all afternoon :/ Seems I can't win!
My "sick" co-worker ws back today. We were both in early (I'm in early every day, she was in early today to catch up on some of the work she missed yesterday), and she confessed to me that what she really experienced was an anxiety attack. I had figured it was something like that. She's been having the week from hell, actually, as she got a phone call from her brother this afternoon to tell her that their mother just had a heart attack & was in the hospital. Her mother's elderly (79) and not in good health, so it wasn't exactly a surprise. But it's still shocking for her regardless.
How was your day?
You're silly, Mustard!
RW,
That's horrible for her. But the unfortunate thing is that it makes it hard for you too.
My day was good. I got caught up on back episodes of the Tudors.
Oh man, RW.
That's no good for your co-worker. How's she holding up all things considered?
Mustard! That is funny. ^_^
RW,
That's terrible about her mother. I'm so sorry!
Mustard, I've never met anyone who cries in public as much as my co-worker. Though today she totally had good reason.
I'm not sure how she's holding up. She got the news late in the day, so she went home soon afterwards. I guess I'll see how she is tomorrow.
That's awful, RW, jeez. I'd have an anxiety attack too. O_O
Splash, I might have an anxiety attack if I'd dropped my hairbrush in the toilet as well. I guess the million dollar question is, was there anything in the toilet when you dropped it? O_O
Well, I hope everything's okay.
Seems like things aren't so good in her life right now. :/ Yet, as Star said, it kind of comes back on you, too. So, what do you do really?
I'm on AIM, someone invite me okeeeeee. :D
She had the anxiety attack before she heard about her mother, K. I can only imagine what she's going through tonight :/
Oh my gosh.
I work with some criers, too. Oh man, I'm one of those people who has to go hide out somewhere when bad things happen. I do not like sharing in this thing you humans refer to as "emotion." ;D
Um, well.
No. There wasn't anything in the toilet. But, I mean. It is a toilet. I wouldn't want to go lick the inside of the bowl or anything.
And it's the only hairbrush I have.
I should have ordered the damn things in bulk. >.<
I know, germs hang around in there no matter what. It's totally their 'hood.
I'm kind of ashamed to admit that I made her cry at work one day. It was totally unintentional. I didn't say anything to her that I hadn't said to anyone else, and she was minding my business. I asked her politely (I thought) to back off, and next thing I knew she was sniffling in a corner.
She admits to being overly sensitive. Now I find myself being superficially cheery all the time at work just so that I don't upset her.
That would be super hard for me to do.
It would be like walking on eggshells.
I love dread lock guy, but I'm not really digging his rendition of Memory.
Oh man, I'm one of those people who has to go hide out somewhere when bad things happen. I do not like sharing in this thing you humans refer to as "emotion." ;D
I so totally hear you. And I'm terrible at comforting people. I tend to take the approach that I would want to be taken toward me in a similar circumstance, which is to be left alone. But most breathing, feeling people tent to prefer the opposite. I sometimes worry that they think I'm callous, but I'm just giving them the space that I would want if it were me in their shoes.
Oh my god, people like that make me nervous.
That would be super hard for me to do.
It would be like walking on eggshells.
I've gotten kind of used to it. But I tell you, I can't wait til the end of next week & I can have a break away from the opera & from her for a bit. After a while all the drama gets exhausting.
Oh, I'm always the first to give hugs and hair-pettings and tissues and sympathy. But if I'm the one who's upset it's like GTFO OF MY FAAACE!
Yeah, yeah.
I shy away from drama. I can't handle it. I just nod my head and continue on.
Honesty? Are you fucking kidding me?
I get enough drama from the cats, I don't need it from people!
And here I chose a career in theatre - oi vay!
If you wanted honesty, that's all you had to say anon :)
Aaaaand... drama killed the blog convo! :(
I never want to let you down or have you go, it's better off this way.
Hey, I know that song... ;)

I can smell the Elmer’s glue squirted on in huge blobs
How is it that I can see Elena's Easter message to Mayo every day, and yet today I read it as "huge boobs".
^Gives that sentence a whole new meaning, doesn't it?
Oh my gosh!
>.<

Problem, anon?
Boobs boobs boobs.
It all comes back to boobs.
It'd wot you call the circle of life. Or somefin'.
RW!
I totally just had an Elton John moment.
Mayo, I want you to know that currently in AIM chat we are talking about Def Leppard and how brilliant of a record Pyromania was.
O_o
Well honestly, it was!
Pyromania for the meffing win!!
I have seen them 3 times.
...just sayin
Should I apologize for that, Mustard: ;)
Hell no you shouldn't, RW.
I do a damn good rendition of "Tiny Dancer."
I'm pretty sure it's my favorite EJ song.
She's got electric boobs! Her mom has, too! You know I read it in a magaziiiiiine!
I kinda of agree with the Anon, although I'm not so vehement. Feel free to jump on me with both feet, but I do find it slightly ironic that someone hiding their identity has Honesty as an interest.
I never got to see Def Leppard. Know why? Honest to god, they came to Nassau Coliseum and I was not allowed to go and see them BECAUSE I FAILED MATH.

*whispers* It's mine too.
She's got electric boobs! Her mom has, too! You know I read it in a magaziiiiiine!
I'm pretty sure you rule.
The lyrics are a touch hard to make out, honestly.
She's got electric boobs! Her mom has, too! You know I read it in a magaziiiiiine!
ROTFLMAO!!
Really, RW!?
That's so cool!
Jules,
That is so wrong. You missed Def Lepp cause you failed math??? And how many times a day do you use math? Uhhhh, what like 3 times? And how many times do you sing Def Leppard songs or use Def Leppard logic? Like always!!!
That hardly seems fair.
Most common misheard song lyric, that one!
My cousin and I, many years ago, made up an entire somg from the words we misheard in "Blinded By The Light."
I know, Solly, I cried for days, I was such a little emo. I was like 14 at the time. I dropped out of math the next effing year.
I never did get to see Def Leppard, and then Steve Clark died and it wasn't the same anymore after that.
Dude, "Blinded By The Light" is the best one to hear WAY different stuff in.
I mean. WAY different.
Revved up like a douche? Another boner in the night?
Um, yes.
That would be the one!
You're right about that. When Steve died, it changed everything.
"Blinded By The Light"...what the fuck are the words?
Revved up like a deuce, another runner in the night.
I never did get to see Def Leppard, and then Steve Clark died and it wasn't the same anymore after that.
He did?
Which one was he?
"Madman grows bulbous indians in the summer with a teenage diplomat /
And the dumps with the mumps and the adolescent bumps is waving to his dad...."
I have just looked up the lyrics and am dismayed to find out that for the most part, what we thought were our own made-up lyrics are, in fact, correct.
O_O
*doesn't know much about Def Leppard*
That's hilarious, K!
Time for me to rest my weary head.
Have a good night, all :)
Except one time he says, "ANd little early birdy came by in his curly whirly" or some crap like that, and we thought he was saying, "little early birdy kept my anus curly whirly" which is kinda better.
Goodnight, RW!
Sleep well!
For GS, next time she pops by.
Ta-ta :)
"little early birdy kept my anus curly whirly"

Promised to post this for TJ and VM who are rocking right now....
TJ and VM ready to rock
I like orange vacuums
I like to vacuum oranges.
I like to vacuum, oranges.
That's a lie. I don't like to vacuum.
Great pic of two hot rockers chicks. Elena! :,
Okay, gonna go sleep now...
THey are both so pretty!
Where the beef did you all get to?
Well, I love oranges and what's more, I like to vacuum.
In fact a few months ago I posted a poem called I Love To Vacuum.
I'm writing to Mayo.
It's not coming out right either. >_<
Well Splash, just let it flow. ^_^ Out the same way in* and all of that.
*That sounds dirty.
Ooh!
close...
Boo
A place with a pond, in the fifth months when the rains are falling, is a very moving thing. It's deeply affecting to sit for hours on end staring out at the garden, a sea of monochrome soft green with the pond's water as deep green as the sweet flag and reeds that crowd it, and the heavy rain clouds hanging above. Indeed all places with ponds are at all times moving and delightful, and of course this is so too on winter mornings when the water is frozen over. Rather than a carefully tended pond, I find delightful the sort that have been left neglected to the rampant water weed, where patches of reflected moonlight gleam whitely on the water here and there between the swathes of green.
All moonlight is moving, wherever it may be.
Ha!
It pays to lurk ;)
