A Warped Witch I Be

In response to "My favorite Author"

Very nicely done. Almost a formal cinquain (I tweak formal ones; written a lot).

Speaker:
soft voice, cool head,
maneuvering, calculating, observing.
Wends his way to Paradise one vote at a time.
Johnson.

I don't agree with US House Speaker Johnson of Louisiana on most issues; but,
he stepped up to do a difficult job and his calm cool demeanor may help him move forward.
I vehemently oppose his world view, but 2024 looms. I remind myself to be patient.

As for Austen... different time, different culture, different use of language. I'm more fond of the dark Bronte sisters: Charlotte, Emily, Anne.

Technical note:

I cannot parse this:

Response: I was crushed at a very early age. I grew up 'bittersweet'. The songs I chose so far for the Soundtrack contest reflect that.

At my age I just live with it, embracing both the bitter and the sweet.

In response to "The Spark"

I'm always amazed at how many people choose mountains and beaches. I'm attracted to open meadows or prairie streching to the horizon. When I go to Thailand it will be to the rice fields of Isan, not the beaches of Phuket or the mountains of Chiang Mai (both are beautiful).

But daily life? Maybe living in a cottage in the Cotswolds visiting my neighbors for a cuppa tea. But Lagos in Portugal, Lillehammer in Norway or Novi Pazar in Serbia might do just fine.

In response to "The Cookie She Eats"

I gained weight during the "Neverending Season of Covid", a horror movie I did NOT consent to be a part of.

But... if I can get back to traveling... I sleep better, eat less, walk more, feel better.

As for cookies... they aren't allowed in my place, nor is chocolate and frankly I shouldn't have bought that can of cashews either.

Oh, do I resemble your poem?

In response to "Music What gets your juices going?"

I don't know much about what is good for excercise music. The songs you have chosen should suit you well. Have a great day.

In response to "What I am Passionate about...."

Nursing is very hard work and I admire anyone who can do it. My mother was a nurse and loved it when she was assigned to work with pedriatic patients in the hospital she worked at (they were too small a hospital to have a NICU).

Anyway, this is a beautiful and moving blog post. You clearly love the work you do and are quite good at it. Thank you for sharing.

This is a really nice story.

In response to "How Do You Celebrate Halloween?"

I didn't see this five years ago so I am glad you shared it again. I haven't read that book by Lewis, sounds like it is one I should. Thanks, I will check it out.

In response to "Message in a Bottle"

That was quite interesting, I didn't anticipate the ending at all. I am glad that not everyone is selfish in your world.
