Revenge is sweetest when it's on the page and not reality.

In response to "Cliche "

Really loved the grittiness of the first poem, taking something that normally brings a sense of wonder, awe and joy into something grim and cynical (and I’m not even really the biggest fan of that style of storytelling). So great job there.

The clock one was eerie as heck, but I loved it. I kind of interpreted it as if the clock turned sentient. Amazing work all around. Faved to reference as inspiration later

Very nicely done, Sumojo

. Time is definitely going to betray us when we turn the clocks back on Sunday, and we lose an hour's sleep. I don't know if you have that in Australia. I really wish they would discontinue it here.

Love it, especially the last line, which says it all.

In response to "November "

When I was a child, we lived rural and no one actually prepared or celebrated Halloween except the classroom in the school. Or, if you lived in a town.

When my children were in school it was a time when suddenly Halloween was a time to beware of what children might find in their Treat bags, if they went trick or treating. As the children grew, we were more likely to buy them a bag of candy then take them into a nearby town to trick or treat.

Halloween for some people is just for fun. For me I basically just ignore it.

How wonderful that we are all of an age and still find joy in life and in writing.
Keep on keeping on, girls.

Glenny

thank you for your response to my blog. Yes we all miss our mum don’t we. I’d love to mine too about all the amazing changes since she left us.

I am going to be 80 next March and I can hardly believe it, fortunately I have very good health and I don't take that lightly. Your comments are inspiring, thank you.

In response to "Phone call to Heaven"

If I could use my mobile phone I would phone my Mum, she would be amazed to hear about the future she missed, mobile phones and the Internet. Secondly I would phone my Sister in law and tell her about her children and how they have grown up and are happy. Also I'd love to hear my dog Nacho bark or give me a cuddle just one more time.

It's complex this death and dying business. I'm not so much concerned about being dead I think it's the process that's a little worrisome.
My Grandad died in his sleep and that's the way I would like to go.

Thanks for your blog.

In response to "Food"

Flies usually stop me from eating outside. That and the fact that I find food cools off faster if you eat outside.

Prompt 7.
The world is not an ideal place for lots of people. What can YOU do to make it better?

To even look beyond your own family, friends, town, suburb, or even State, is to be overwhelmed.
The problems of the world are too much to bear. Sometimes one can become defeated and give up.
You may think there’s nothing you could possibly do to improve our messed up world. The problems such as climate change, world starvation and disease are surely too complex for one person’s actions make a difference.
But what if we start by looking closer to home, perhaps starting with our own family structures?

Just imagine for one minute if we all stopped messing up our own little corner of this precious world. If we managed our own mess.
We could start by not polluting our local environment. Dispose of our own waste and help prevent the oceans from being choked by ever more plastic by simply taking it home, disposing of it thoughtfully or sending it to a recycling plant.

We could save energy by using power and water efficiently, maybe wearing a few extra layers when it’s cold before turning on heaters. Shorter showers, saving water, and power.

Food waste is another concern in a world where so many of the population are starving for lack of food. There is no shortage of food in the world but there is bad distribution. Let’s only buy what we really need and share what we don’t use. Help, volunteer at food banks, soup kitchens and care for the homeless and hungry in our own districts. We can ensure our elderly are safe by visiting regularly to check on their welfare. Say hello to a neighbour, you might be the only person they speak to that day. Try to keep regular contact to help where you can.

So there are numerous simple ways we can get involved in saving our planet. If we all did these simple, easy ways, the earth would thank you.
