    Using my Mad Kane limerick once again.
    Love this photo, Kerry. My mother had a cup and saucer similar to this when I was young.

    I may have missed some others in Real Toads but not OLM. It has that attraction where our freedom to choose is left unhindered. Thanks Kerry!

    Monday has never felt so pleasurable! I wrote a new poem this morning and I'm prepping for my writing workshop tonight where I have put in some work for critique today--oooo. I'm ready, I think, thanks to the generosity and inspiration of the Real Toads in this garden.

    I like your 'teacup find' picture for this week. We have to be satisfied with Magnolia blossoms in our cups, as those are what we have to pick here.

    Thank you for peeking in on Bid Bird in hiding. I had to do that. :) I really do like the guy even if here in a Red state we aren't supposed to.

    Today while reading quotes about poetry I came across Marianne Moore's quote about how poets should make imaginary gardens with real toads in them and I was so excited... I didn't know where the name for this blog came from. Anyway... look forward to all the toads...
