The Colour Orange
Funny anecdotes from an eccentric wife and mother
The Colour Orange
The tiles in my amber kitchen are new.
His boxers now orange and not boring blue.
Early bday gift from you know who...
Could have painted my nails red
Only I knew, that colour would not do
Lighten it to the shade of honey dew!
Our kids love Watsits and Doritos too
Usually suplimented with a healthy carrot.
Recent addition to our family was an orange-bellied-parrot.
Oh yes, obviously I have a favourite colour!
Ranging from rust to burnt sienna to merigold. The Colour Orange

Ranging from rust to burnt sienna to merigold.
And although its all over the house
Never will this style grow old.
Going out of style is not what we do.
Even if my husband insists on keeping his boxers blue.

The Duelist
The rays of a dying red sun flashed against the onrushing blade. The grey beards say the key to dueling lies in size, speed, reach, righteous fury, whatever the person in front of them pays them to say. Matteo knew better than any it was none of these and had an undefeated record on these sands to prove it.
