doris1022: hole in the ceiling, hole in the air ducts, ac not working, and the water system is leaking.
oh the pains of living.
    Joy Graham: I hope you can get that fixed soon. -
    doris1022: thanks Joy, we got one problem fixed today and one other partially fixed today. so we are on the way. -
    Matoshka: Thank you, Doris, for your picture for my poem, it so inspired it. Blessings -
    paula ann: thank you for you review and your kindness. it was just a poem but thank you x
    -


doris1022: would anyone be interested in a Minute poem contest? it has two forms traditional and non traditional. one rhymes the other not. has a
8-4-4-4 syllable count pattern. repeated into 4 stanzas...


doris1022: has anyone ever had a book printed just for themselves...if so what printer do you use for a good quality book binding.
    Julia.: I haven't printed a book just for myself, but I have ordered books from both Create Space and Lulu. Both sites seem to provide decent quality paperbacks. I think both use Lightning Source for printing so that would make sense. -


doris1022: What kind of art do you like on your wall for enjoyment? paintings, flowers, mules, Cartoons etc. What tickles your fancy?
    Donya Quijote: I'm big on photos, but I also hang my paintings and drawings as well as a few done by my mother... -
    nor84: I like my needlepoint on my walls. I have finished several large ones. -
    doris1022: That is the thing about art there are so many different things that we can use for art. -


doris1022: Merry Christmas!!


doris1022: The sedoka poem contest is up for vote and there is alot of good ones there. my favs are Damage control and sedoka, sudoku?
funny writes.


doris1022: Pantoum poetry form:

In the example, the letters A, B, C etc refer to whole repeated lines, not just rhyming lines.


a First Line
b Second Line
c Third Line
d Fourth Line
b Second Line
e Fifth Line
d Fourth Line
f Sixth Line
e Fifth Line
c Third Line
f Sixth Line
a First Line
As she dances on the moonlit glen
Taking in the freshness of the air
She is alone, but not lonely
She is surrounded by spirits
Taking in the freshness of the air
Searching again for her silent companions
She is surrounded by spirits
They watch the contentment she holds
Searching again for her silent companions
She is alone, but not lonely
They watch the contentment she holds
As she dances on the moonlit glen
    DIS-illusioned: Very interesting form. Thanks for the edification. :) -


doris1022: Thankfully remembering my family this morning. Mysister is doing the cooking and I will do the eating. Fabulous.
    William Walz: At my age and disposition, thankfully remembering anything this morning. -
    DIS-illusioned: Can't wait to hear how you guys work out who does the dishes. (My money's on you, doris. You doing the dishes, or getting your way in the negotiations?...I don't know).
    :) -
    doris1022: Paper plates....and cups. -


doris1022: Cheetos
Fritos

Grande
Boo-tae!
    DIS-illusioned: Um...a little of each, please.
    :) -
    doris1022: sure thing! ;] -


doris1022: Has anyone ever heard of the Footle poem?
    rosehill (Wendy): never
    ever -
    Aaron James: nope -
    DIS-illusioned: Oh, that poetic form--the Footle? ... No, can't say I have, sorry. :-p
    :) -
    adewpearl: never heard of it, but I Googled it and found several websites with definition and examples -
    shelley kaye: google it.... here's what i found.... "A footle is a two line 2 syllable verse with an integral title. Light Poetic verse form, witty, pertinent, topical, etc. (technically a trochaic monometer). it was inspired by the famous FLEAS Adam/had'em."

    -
    doris1022: Thank you, for the information. It is a fun try. Anyone have a try of footles? -


doris1022: TGIF!
    DIS-illusioned: To Gamble Is Fun?
    The Game Is Fixed?
    Try Going In Footless?
    That Guy Is Funny?
    ... What ya trying to say?
    Anyhoo, thank God it's Friday, so whatever!
    :) -
    shelley kaye: the goose is finished....

    -
    Nick©: Try Gutting Island Fairies... -
    doris1022: Locust and wild honey is on the menu today. -


doris1022: I have been reading some of the contest poems up for voting and alot of them are very good. If you have time take a vote.


doris1022: My son got his first 8 point buck last night I am proud for him and excited for him. He has been trying for a while. We had it processed to eat and the ones we don't need we give to charity. One less pea eater on the property. one less tree destroyer.
    Torrence Winter: If you are going to kill it you need to use every part. Remember that was once a living breathing being and you need to respect it. -


doris1022: Is it offensive to get a 4 or 4.5 rating? not every poem is perfect...right?
    nor84: There are no 4.5 ratings. Four stars means "good, adjustments needed. The reviewer should tell the writer what changes are needed. -
    redrider6612: You should definitely support any rating below 5 with suggestions for improvement. The sandwich method works best--positive remarks/suggestions for improvement/positive remarks--though you will still get backlash from the touchy poets. If they snap at you, report them--that kind of behavior is against site rules. -
    doris1022: Thanks for the info. Have a great week! -


doris1022: Have to go see a dietician today about a fat girl....seems life has been too decadent for me. Glad I had plenty of food to eat.
    Joy Graham: My sympathies to you. I have to face my doctor in a few weeks about my health too. Not looking forward to it. -
    Shirley B: Too bad we just can't eat what we want! :) -
    doris1022: Thanks, Shirley and Joy for your sympathies...it went better than I expected. though I am still on restriction. lol -


doris1022: The goose frap hit the fan tonight!
    DIS-illusioned: Is the fan still working? Must have been quite a hit. :) -
    doris1022: Killed it zombie dead! lol -
    His Grayness: Doris: So glad to have you as a fan .... I am honored!!! Hope to see you often! Vance -


doris1022: The sun is up and lighting my day....shine on!
    rosehill (Wendy): Actually, I think it is shining on me and you happen to be in the vicinity. -
    Grammies: Actually that's my warm sunny disposition turned toward you both.;) -


doris1022: Today was pleasantly cool and we had a social meal at church. Very nice lazy day. Hope everyone else had a restful day!
    DIS-illusioned: I did, thanks. God bless you! :) -
    Lady & Louis: I was at work, it's Monday here ... but it wasn't exactly busy! :) -


doris1022: I am enjoying this site and the reviews whether good or bad. Thanks everyone!
    DIS-illusioned: Pfft! Wait till you get your first one-star review from some alien drunken bigot. Yes, they exist, and are amongst us now even as we speak.
    Enjoy! :) -
    Grammies: Hmm talking about me again are you DIS? So pink hippos show up occasionally in my yard, and I happen to like red wine a little bit sue me!!! -
    doris1022: Take the little pink pills and chill.....LOL -
    The Stranger: Why on earth do you bother to review when you blarantly ignore the sites guidelines?
    Are you just here to wind people up? -
    doris1022: Don't think you needed much winding....I just started at this site and don't know all the RULES yet. -
