Red, Red Roses for Daily Photo

“If you want to say it with flowers, a single rose says: ‘I’m cheap!’ Delta Burke

Close Up 

“I am ready for my close-up, Ms Photographer Lady!”

No clicks of the shutter can be heard

“Hey lady! Over here! See, pretty as hell!”

Still nothing

“Hey miss-wannabe-photo-snapper, I am standing here, waiting… My time is not cheap you know!”

And yet no luck…

“OK, so now I am really getting pissed: Get your big butt over here and snap some pix, PRONTO!”

The pix-snapper finally reacts: “OK, OK, don’t get your knickers in a twist: I was just polishing my lens…”
“Gee, what a diva…”

“Snap, snap, snap… a presto!”

Solo 

Flying solo
When ever the wind blows
And not even snow
Will make me loose my glow….

…Unless I have to stop and my nose blow!

One Among Many 

Listen carefully
You might hear the soft whispers
Of the pretty rose sisters
Sitting in the vase neatly…

“Don’t push me!”

“Ouch, that really hurt!”

“You know, your thorns are really sharp!”

“Me, me, me, I want to be first!”

Apples

Lay all your apples in one basket
That’s a cliche most classic
But this doesn’t have to be their casket
After all, they were made of plastic

Roses

Roses are red, violets are blue
Roses made from cardboard
May be really hard to chew

KEEP GOING

Quote a Week Tuesday dedication to Sir Winston Churchill

I have dedicated this week’s Quote a Week Tuesday to Sir Winston Churchill. The quotations chosen may help you through some tricky situations, as they have me!

My top ten list (in no particular order):

* “There are a terrible lot of lies going about the world, and the worst of it is that half of them are true.”
* “To build may have to be the slow and laborious task of years. To destroy can be the thoughtless act of a single day.”
* “Never hold discussions with the monkey when the organ grinder is in the room.”
* “Personally I’m always ready to learn, although I do not always like being taught.”
* “Success is the ability to go from one failure to another with no loss of enthusiasm.”
* “Attitude is a little thing that makes a BIG difference.”
* “You have enemies? Good. It means you’ve stood up for something, sometime in your life.”
* “In the course of my life I have often had to eat my words, and I must confess that I have always found it a wholesome diet.”
* “Success is not final, failure is not fatal, it is the courage to continue that counts.”
* “The greatest lesson in life is to know that even fools are right sometimes.”
