Mirror, mirror
The mirror showed a reflection that wasn't my own. The woman in the mirror had such radiant beauty that the glass seemed to fog slightly. Of course, it was just the humidity. Blood is mostly water, and there is an astonishing volume of hot blood in the human body.

Good bye, Bellatrix
Bellatrix – that’s what the family in the corner house named her when she befriended Bolt, their aging Westie. They also declared that Bellatrix was a girl – not an easy call with fluffy white rabbits – fed her an occasional carrot and even let her come indoors on the rare occasions Bellatrix seemed inclined to do so.

Vocal - the #100 thoughts
...And so I have published 100 posts on the Vocal platform. Time to reflect a bit. I had high hopes for Vocal when I joined - some of these hopes materialized, while the rest proved to be overly optimistic. I know that rhyming metered poetry (most of my posts) is not popular these days. I had many discussions on this subject with other poes, reareds, and even some random folks who were careless enough to be within the "excuse me, may I ask you a quick question" range. The results were inconclusive to slightly negative, but I did, do and will maintain that poems should rhyme. And prose should have rich imagery, rhythm and structure - while still being called prose.

Hike
Just one more hike and we are done, just one more hike - the final one, just one more hike to stop the tide, just one more hike to hit the stride, just one more hike it's no surprise, just one more hike to paradise, just one more hike just one more hike don't wait for cuts just one more hike ifs, ands and buts, just one more hike to come to grips, just one more hike don't read my lips, just one more hike inflation cools , just one more hike my dear fools.
