It didn't last long...



I took down my photo-
Deleted some posts,
Needed to ponder on
What matters most...

One said- "Looks aren't important!",
Another said, "You be the judge."
My sisters and Dog said to me-
"It's you that we love."

So If, "It don't matter",
And I must ultimately decide...
Then I must tell you directly-
I'll post ALL the dang pictures I like!

And IF, on some morning...
I wake up and pout-
You might discover
That "Mayden's" a COW! :)

But most of time...
With apologies to NO ONE-
I'll be spiffed up with lip gloss...
And my hair will be done!

I will put my best foot forward,
And smile as each new day begins-
'Cause what you see on MY outside-
Reflects what's within :)

and now to float inside the ring
with a brilliant flash of sunlight sting

unrepentant, and non-compliant

I have to say that this latest photo of you is the HAPPIEST face I have seen you wear, and a joy to behold!
(I DO like the pussycat, too.
I'm not much for cows...)

boneman said...

the two cows stand there looking at the road and the car that just passed them, and I know because it was me and as I drove by I rolled down m'window and MOOed as I oft do, and I'm so very sure they're standing there wondering....
"How did that cow get a driver's liscense?"

Rachel said...

Libby said...

Mayden' s Voyage said...

Schaumi- Smooch! :)

Velvet- Thank you~

Grunt...escape? Ha! (you are right though- it is impossible!)

Firebird- thank you! I'm at the beach for a few days- trying to save the last bit of this tan! :)

X- You are SO right! I am getting more and more excited the closer we get to departure :) I may have to do a scrapbook on NYC- all by itself! :)

Lux...love to you :) Thank you :)

Mayden' s Voyage said...

Bird- Really...thank you :) If I can't laugh at myself- well, that would be pathetic! :)

Doc-t...selfish? I don't think so :)

iamnot- It's all good- I am who I am :) Good, bad, opinionated or passive (lol...as if THAT ever happens!) And a camera hog apparently... :)

Boneman~ Moooo! Smooch :)

Miss E- thank you :) And yours brightens my day!

EOR- You so inspire me- and I thank you for that! And you're right...it is my blog :)

Libby- Oh- pictures can be deceiving! :) But thank you! :)

Rachel- thank you...and I'm sad to say the snake is hard to get rid of. It will die- but at a great cost to everyone. I can hardly wait to get the rest of it written!
Thanks for being here! :)
