Scribbles and Scrambles ~ Twists of Tongue and Tweak of Mind

You never know what you might find....
 

You know how I lapse into bizarre poetry at times? 

Well, I don't very often, fortunately. But you need to see how I come by this naturally. 

These are extra special snippets from the family Easter dinner email discussion. No names will be used to protect the innocent...of which are few...very few. 

------------------------------------------------------

To set a time to meet would be quite a feat ---- night, noon, or morning as long as there is warning.  Where we go, just let me know.  Of course we'll meet the vegan wishes for some plant-based dishes

----------------------------------------------------
Egad, egad, no prose is had--
I cannot rhyme for lack of time--
So I shall bring some veggie thing,
Like peppers milled & onions grilled 
With mushrooms sliced & olives diced:
Random shopping, taco topping.
You may desist & shake your fist,
But dear Shakespeare has naught to fear.

-----------------------------------------------------

Me, who eschews 
words of superflous
wonders what is left
that leaves the table bereft? 
 
----------------------------------------------------
 
Around 21 our number should be,
 which rules out a sit down As you can see.
  So, plan on buffet style, and casual attire
If you see a hole in the menu, then ready, aim, fire,
And fill it up to your heart’s content
A good time of fellowship is the intent.
A time to praise God for His magnificent ways
A time to thank Him for the Ancient of Days. 
(Gotta love the nice reason for the season plug! 
Impressive word wrangling, said with a smile and shrug. )
