LateBloomer: Quote of the day ...
"Two things define you: Your patience when you have nothing and your attitude when you have everything." ― George Bernard Shaw
    Houston DeBerry: Thank you for the feedback! I went back and addressed the typos. I also noticed that I didn?t follow the directions. I submitted the entire poem, instead of just 5 lines. Oops! -

LateBloomer: I just read this quote today ...
"Show up, show up, show up, and after a while the muse
shows up too ~ Isabel Allende"


LateBloomer: Happy Valentine Day to my FS friends. I hope you have the sweetest day.


LateBloomer: You know that you're getting old when Walm*rt sends you casket ads. I can even make monthly payments of $103. Layaway rules. A good girl scout is always prepared. Lol.


LateBloomer: Just sharing ...
"I have loved the stars too fondly to be fearful
of the night. ~ Sarah Williams "


LateBloomer: It may feel like winter, but the air smells like spring. Ahh...an early Spring would be nice.
    flylikeaneagle: People are running to the grocery store with word of more snow and wind. Yes, may be a blizzard and then more snow. The lion of March is roaring. I know there will be spring soon. The sun is shining brighter here in Minnesota. flylikeaneagle - nancy -


LateBloomer: Happy New Year and thank you to all Fanstorians for all your kind words and thoughts throughout the year.

?Feeling gratitude and not expressing it is like wrapping a present and not giving it.? ?William Arthur Ward
    mountainwriter49: Hello Friend,

    I'm just now seeing this in my FS mailbox. It's been a while since I've been here.

    I hope you're well. Things are going OK here. Fresh out of paraesophageal surgery at Duke. Successful.

    I'm working with Ann Brixey and some others on a Japanese short form book of poetry. Also working to get 50 of my best sonnets published.

    how is your writing going?

    griffin0909@mindspring.com

    Take care, my friend.

LateBloomer: Just heard today ... "All families are embarrassing, and if not, they're dead ~ The Seventies Show" Perhaps, this will help some get through the upcoming Holidays! Lol.


LateBloomer: Thought of the day ...

"The quill is not a feather duster." LateBloomer

... So write, write, write,
and let the dust begin to grow.



LateBloomer: While my muse is off somewhere being amused, I'll leave you this quote:

"The lunatic, the lover, and the poet, are of imagination all compact."
― William Shakespeare, A Midsummer Night's Dream

And so ... when my muse returns, will a lunatic, lover, or poet appear? My next writing shall tell.
    Lovinia: I'm a lunatic, lover and poet .... will I do? LOL
    I guess NOT what you're looking for?

    The sippy straw and chocolates will appear for sure ... with or without your muse. Perhaps mine is away with yours?
    Huge hugs - Lovi xoxo -
    Dean Kuch: I think I saw your muse playing with my muse out behind the barn, Bloomer.
    That doesn't bode well for your muse, I'm afraid.
    Heh-heh-heh... photo devil1_zpsfp86f2ia.gif -


LateBloomer: Thought of the day ... If you drink the "Cool-Aid" long enough, you become the Cool-Aid.


LateBloomer: "Things are sweeter when they're lost." ~ F. Scott Fitzgerald


LateBloomer: You are never too old to set another goal or to dream a new dream. ~ C.S. Lewis


LateBloomer: The greatest good you can do for another is not just to share your riches, but to reveal to him his own ~ Benjamin Disraeli
    Ridley Williams: Loved this thought, and I agree, the world belongs to those that would encourage others... -


LateBloomer: Thought of the day ... "Remembrance is the ying and yang of forgiveness." Thought inspired by Val Crisson's senyru (forgiveness).



LateBloomer:
"The music in the violin does not emerge alone ~ Emily Dickinson"

LateBloomer: Thought of the Day ... "Why waste brain cells on useless matter? ~ LateBloomer"

LateBloomer: When it comes to writing, I feel like the beauty queen who is lost in a gourmet kitchen. We have the tools, but yet so much to learn.


LateBloomer:
"It is strange that the most intangible thing is the most adhesive ~ Emily Dickinson"
