It was a typical end of the year gala celebration at the castle.    All sorts of animals from completely different walks of life had been invited.    Since the dawn of Stardancer’s use, other multiple worlds had been opened to joining alliances with Mobius.    Bronto had long pledged fielty to Mobius and had been honored to be invited to ring in the New Year with his friends.   He had so much to catch up with concerning his old sage friend, Agnes.      Holidays were not usually a time to shirk vigilance, but someone had gotten into the punch and many of the attendees were buzzed.   Even the typically intrepid guards were bumbling about, and the infiltrator had easily entered.    Hypnotica had come under a glamor

Synopsis:   A young horticulturist named Doctor Dahlia Lantana finds a way of making mistletoe spritz out a pheromone to anyone kissing under it but her ‘party gift idea’ takes a bad turn when everyone starts falling for each other.   She luckily has an antiserum that contradicts the original pheromone cocktail and at long last finds a fellow scientist she can share the mistletoe in earnest with.  Chapter 1—Ah, Socializing ! Doctor Dahlia Lantana was slightly introverted, so being invited to the company Christmas party made her a skosh nervous.    She had to bolster herself before the festivities, bringing her special mistletoe.   Only weeks before she had been able to breed mistletoe with a special pheromone.    Unfortunately, Dahlia hadn’t had a lot of time to test the effects of the pheromone when combined with the potency of mistletoe itself.     Dahlia knew how to act even if her nerves had become a bit frayed.   She decorated the middle of the ballroom with her ‘party gift’ a

Geminid meteors fly  Streaking vertically in the sky  The bright light delights  A spectacle any night  No other light save a few afar  Plus the occasional passing car  Blind to the dance of our planet  Our transit, our orbit  One last wee hour show  The Ursids just begin to show  To culminate the 21st  The Solstise and Rebirth Time to wish prosperity anew  Time to shout a hearty ‘Salud !’  I’m blessed to share these winter lights Just one of many December delights.  12-13-21

Grief can be humbling It reveals true intentions That’s one small detail  People neglect to mention There will always be a void And It can’t be ignored But I’ve put full trust In my Abba, the Lord  The three are by me  Each and every day When I feel ignored  They listen to what I say  I’m leaning harder Praying every day That if my desires are unholy  ‘Please take them away’ Sometimes its hard  I walk where few feet trod In this Valley sometimes all I do  Is cry out to God  Sometimes no words emit I am awash with tears  I shiver in sadness  I’m awash with fears  Somehow tears dry  I live another day God alone to hear my cry  I know I don’t cry in vain  My beauty comes from ashes, Lord  I will come through Slogging through the muck and mire Washed, I stand anew  Yes, the lonesome tides ebb and flow  My faith remains steadfast For my weeping will turn to dancing I’ll rejoice at last  I wait on Him He renews me My joy and peace fulfilled In Him I remain contented For He says, ‘Peace, be s

It’s that time of year again When houses become fanciful  Everything glitters  All colors of the spectrum shine  Not a single hue is left alone to sparkle solo I’m filled with warmth Hope overflows and I can’t help but share A smile glistens on my face I’m 7 again Gorging myself on too many sweets I’m a happy little elf Spreading Christmas cheer Marveling at the wonderlands I see ‘Til I grow sleepy And sugar plums invade my dreams.  11/30/21

(Inspired by a Bob’s Burger’s post on Facebook)  You held my hamburger  My tacos, too Made of plastic Colorful to boot  So convenient  Pardon me if I gloat  I can’t help but love you My sweet sandwich boat  Never thought we’d match  Never thought I’d click a link so fast  But I bought you  So there’s absolutely no regret You’re the best present A foodie like me could get So I share you with family  I share you with friends Savoring my meals with you The fun never ends  I can eat my sandwiches totally hand free You never cease inspiring me.  11/26/21
