I Love This Place
I remember the last time we were here. Sitting on this balcony together, gazing out over the sea. Your smile beaming in the ocean mist, your eyes as bright as the sparkling rays of sunshine dancing on the waves.

The Old Man and the Little Girl
The old man slumps in his rocking chair, his once white coat now a lusterless grey. It's tattered and worn as the muddied lines on his face;

O Canada. Our Home and Favourite Bands
This piece is in response to a post from the Facebook group Vocal Writing Prompts, run by Julie Smith. It is a fun group which I highly recommend for anyone who may be suffering from writer’s block, or just simply a lack of inspiration. In the group, prompts are given for group members as an idea to write a story/poem. The current one is for a playlist of your top ten favourite songs from any genre, and the reason why you chose them.

Have You Ever Tried Giving a Pill to a Honey Badger?
Ok, so as you can see from the title picture, she’s actually a cat. She’s Abigail, a cute little ten-pound harmless ball of fluff. That’s no honey badger. Well, honey, let me tell you, most times I'd agree but try cutting her nails or giving her a pill. This cute little ten-pound ball of fluff would rip the nuts off a lion and eat a cobra for breakfast. She's not only as ferocious as a honey badger; she's as strong as a crocodile and as slippery as a greased pig. You try giving her a pill. Please, I’m begging! Somebody help me!
