Poetry Monday :: Balcony.

Poetry Monday is a blogging game invented long ago. Mimi of Messymimi's Meanderings and I are keeping it alive until Diane @ On the Border returns home from her break of health and relaxation, travelling the world with her husband as far as we can tell.

We just hope she's going to take back over once she returns home.

The prompts now come from 365 Days of Drawing Prompts and other Arts group. This is a Facebook group with a prompt for each day of the year, but no worries, the prompts will still be here and at Mimi's blog.

Today's prompt is: Balcony

I'm busy editing, the sun is shining, Blogger is still not updating or letting me comment ... lots of excuses, so I sat myself down and did what I do when the muses won't colaborate. I wrote an Elfje.

Balcony,
Romeo, Juliet.
The curtain rises,
the scene is set.
Tragedy.

Service Announcement Updated ~ Blogger! ~ Servicemeddelelse opdateret

Dear readers and co-bloggers, my blogrolls are not updating, and I am only sporadically allowed to post comments on Blogger-blogs. Strangely there's no problems commenting on WP or self-hosted blogs.

I'll try just visiting your blogs when I suspect something new has happened.

For instance: River has posted the prompts for Words for Wednesday, even if my blogroll still gives her former post.

--  @  --

Kære læsere og med-bloggere, mine læselister gider ikke opdatere, og jeg får kun af og til lov til at skrive en kommentar på jeres blog, hvis I også bruger Blogger. Der er ingen problemer med at kommentere hos WordPress eller self-hosted blogs.
    Jeg vil forsøge bare at besøge jeres blogs, når jeg tror der er noget nyt.
    For eksempel har River planmæssigt udgivet stikordene til Words for Wednesday, selv om hendes blog stadig viser det forrige opslag i min læseliste.

The no comments allowed looks like this. This is a screenshot from Messymimi's Meanderings, but it also affects many more blogs, among those Christine's Blog, Drifting Through Life (River), Strikkoman, and The Other Side of 80. Sometimes if I close down everything and reboot, I can post one comment, but that's not exactly a good solution. I hope Blogger will fix this soon.

Sådan her ser det ud, når jeg prøver at kommentere. Det er et skærmdump fra Mimis blog, men det sker også på Christine's Blog, River's blog, Strikkoman og en hel del andre.
Nogen gange går dagens første kommentar igennem, eller hvis jeg lukker og genstarter computeren. Men det er jo ikke en holdbar løsning. Jeg vente på Blogger.

Poetry Monday :: Futuristic Landscape

Poetry Monday is a blogging game invented long ago. Mimi of Messymimi's Meanderings and I are keeping it alive until Diane @ On the Border returns home from her break of health and relaxation, travelling the world with her husband as far as we can tell.

We just hope she's going to take back over once she returns home.

The prompts now come from 365 Days of Drawing Prompts and other Arts group. This is a Facebook group with a prompt for each day of the year, but no worries, the prompts will still be here and at Mimi's blog.

Today's prompt is: Futuristic Landscape.


Walking in a futuristic landscape
The brook colours my feet yellow,
And from a tree I pick some grapes,
I find them sweet and mellow.

The rocks look molten, running, soft
Their shadows nice and furry
The bats fly from the pigeon's loft
In droves of velvet flurry.

At sunset, when the moon arises
and all the clouds go home
I see the birds in many sizes
Each carrying a tiny gnome.

The earth has holes beneath my feet
as good old Schweitzer cheese
The downs and feathers fall like sleet
And make me itch and sneeze.

The sneezing has made up my mind,
I'll leave this awful place
And for a land with sun and wind
I'll leave without a trace.

Sunday Selection ~ Søndagsbillede

Det bliver kun til et enkelt billede i dag. Jeg har haft for travlt i haven og glemt at tage billeder. Jeg håber på at få taget en masse billeder og vise frem i de kommende dage. Her er i hvert fald en hel plante fuld af guld.

Only one photo today. I've been too busy digging, planting and sowing and have forgotten to photodokument anything. I'll have to remedy this later today.
    Here's at least one very golden, very vigorous plant.
