I found a neat poem today on this site I go to from time to time and post, it goes like this- Origami Secret Birds in Spring don't smell like lilacs. Their shells crack when I whisper "I love you" wrong. Their throne is delicate and their wings like paper origami. Their sense of urgency is the Mulatta fiending freedom's secret. Yes their wings: origami secrets. And though I amble, deliciously poeting; paper & pen of borrowed-cap fame, mine own camera capturing the thievery of their caged-bird essence, I refuse to whisper their song. And I refuse to whistle their song. Yay! That I know the caged-bird in his ultimate and unending beauty. He is only I, and I: an origami secret. Copyright © 2007 Jacquii Cooke Jacquii has a real nice site to post poems on-http://jpicforum.info/index-1.php Stop by there and check it out. It is very cold here today in NC. It got down to about 30 last night. I hope the hummingbirds don't fly away from here cause it's so cold. It is kinda weird weather for May. I have to go back to work this coming Monday. I have been laid off for two months. I do dread going back cause I have been off so long. My husband is going to have to get him another car. I think it's the transmission. Lord's willing we can find him something really quick. The Lord always provides a way. Looks like today is going to be a pretty day. |

My Dad took me to Franklin with him yesterday. I tried to get a loan but so far I am not sure if we can get a loan for a car. They are going to call Monday and let me know, going to talk to the manager. Dad stopped by a game place and he traded in a game cube he bought there about a year ago and got me a playstation 2, the difference was 25.00 plus he bought a memory card for it and he told me that was my birthday gift. Next month is my birthday but it was nice to get a gift early. Dad is a sweet person. I love him a lot. We stopped at Walmart and I bought my husband a wrestling game for the playstation 2, I also printed some pics out. It turned out to be a pretty good day all because dad got me the playstation. I came home and talked to Dwayne's sister. She told Dwayne that if he needed help next week getting to work and back she would help him cause she lives close to town and that he could drive her car well now she can't drive her car. Her son went to town and stopped at a local thrift store to see if they had a game and he got back in the car and didn't even have time to start it up and this lady hit the front boom really hard, instead of putting the car in drive she put in in reverse so now glenda (dwayne's sister) can't drive her car. They are going to see what the car's worth and if it isn't worth much to fix they are going to destroy the car and give her a check so she can get another car. Next week she will have a rental car to drive. When it rains, it really does rain! Well maybe pretty soon Glenda and Dwayne will have some wheels. Wish us luck. |

Hello world how is everyone this fine day? I got my computer upgraded today to 512 mb so it seems to run faster now. I had a fun day with my Dad we went to Franklin together. I liked something that Dad said today it was pretty cool. I heard that a store in town has just opened up and that their stuff is real high like a shirt is 90 bucks! I asked Dad, don't you want a shirt for 90 bucks? He said only if there's a 100 bill in the pocket. So that would mean you would only have to pay 10 for the shirt which sounds like a winner to me. I love my dad, he is a good person to be around most of the time that is ;-) I wrote a poem about him this evening it goes like this- For My Dad (Jerry) Dad are you always going to be around to pick my feet off of the ground? Dad are you always going to be with me to capture my every breath and enjoy the loving world that we are living in today? Will you free the spirit with me always? I enjoy your face. The loving cheer you bring to me. If I am broke I ask you for some money to pay a bill and you come running to me. Dad what I am asking will you always be with me even through eternity? I know we must one day die but Dad will you follow with your wings holding Heaven high? I love you Dad please always walk with me. Thank you for giving me love and sharing your days. Thank you God, a prayer for the high power above you sent me a good Dad to love. I love you Dad will you follow me always? I am waiting for your human form to guide me through this road of weak summer rain reckless change. Guide me Dad through this world of life and through the Heaven of the dead. Be with me always, Please? Take my hand, sometimes life would be better in the promise land of gold can you take me with you when you go? Through this sky of old age and torn pages bloomed I know you will always be here because you love me. To My Dad Jerry Shuler (I love you and thanks for loving me) |

I am having a blast watching the hummingbirds. I mixed up a half cup of sugar and two cups of water. For those of you out there that don't have a hummingbird feeder on your porch you don't know what you're missing. I seen a real pretty male hummingbird when you take their feeder down to clean it, you see them right away because they are looking for their food source. Hummingbirds are beautiful. I also have a robin that has made a nest close to the house here. Today I saw the robin fly right to it's nest, sitting on some eggs. Nature is a beautiful thing it is ;-) I have talked to some more neat people on My Space. I found a really cool poem here it goes-
http://www.myspace.com/itspoetryifisayso When all the moths are dead - You will have butterflies. The kind we took a scalpel to And painted pretty. **** We hope you like your food stitched up, Three shaded chameleon friend, Like champagne mixed with holy water - Saline tastes sweet in the end. And we hope you love us now, Our ever drawing flame, Burning bright on off cut skin, You spit exactly the same. **** We are sewn up, smattered butterflies Crawling from the crucible Of a moth, And we hope you think us beautiful While flying back to the same old fire, Because pretty is not enough.

Well it is a good thing I made a trip to the post office today. I pulled up to the stop sign and here comes a car going by all painted and fixed up like something Mr. Bean would drive and in the window was a picture of Mr.Bean looked like something really creative. First thing that went through my mind I wonder if Mr. Bean is driving that car drinking some wine or maybe he might be taking some sex pills. Mr. Bean always seemed to me like a happy bomb on wires or something out of this world either way it sure was a blessing seeing a Mr. Bean car I couldn't ask for more really. To me that was the blessing for the day. Let's put on some Mr. Bean. |

THE WEB By: Monica Mack A spider spun a web of gold unnoticed in the damp and cold. What was the web this spider spun? breeze-ruffled grasses bathed in sun, filmy-green trees crowning the hills, gardens adorned with daffodils, skies of soft white and softer blue, fragrant red lilacs dipped in dew. The spider web soon snagged a fly, caught suddenly zigzagging by, forever caught on helpless wing. I am that fly; the web is spring. |

![]() I am finally sitting down watching some of my Dr. Who episodes with Tom Baker what a dream! I bought about 13 Dr. Whos off of amazon last year. I got them for a very good price I don't think I will come across a good price again like I did last year on the Dr. Whos. Most of them are about $30.00 a piece some are even $80.00 a piece. The two Dr. Who episodes I watched today was The Hand of Fear and The Androids of Tara The Hand of Fear (Episode 87) (1975) Amazon.com Doctor Who fans must take the bittersweet with the suspenseful in this four-part story arc from 1976, which pits the Doctor (Tom Baker) and companion Sarah Jane Smith (Elisabeth Sladen) against the fossilized hand of an alien criminal which possesses a hideous will to live again. Discovered by the Doctor and Sarah during a trip to Earth that puts them in the middle of a mining blast, the hand belongs to Eldrad, a fugitive criminal from the planet Kastria who desires to regain his bodily form and return to his home. To do so, he possesses Sarah and the staff of a nearby nuclear reactor in order to use its power to regenerate, which leads to several eerie scenes with the reanimated hand that nicely evoke British horror features from the '60s and '70s. Well-liked by Baker-era fans, The Hand of Fear is best remembered as Sladen's final turn as Sarah (though she has frequently returned to the role on both radio and TV), and her final scenes with Baker (largely written by the two actors) have an endearing sort of wistfulness. As with all Doctor Who DVD releases, The Hand of Fear features a number of well-produced extras that flesh out the production history of the episodes. The commentary by Baker, Sladen, co-star Judith Paris (who plays the reconfigured Eldrad in an early female form), co-author Bob Baker, and producer Phillip Hinchcliffe is an excellent place to start for first-time viewers and longtime fans; all except Paris are also featured in an informative 50-minute featurette titled "Changing Time," which illuminates the warm working relationship between Baker and Sladen, as well as her reasons for departing the series. An 11-minute videotape clip from the U.K. children's show Swap Shop featuring Baker and Sladen before the broadcast of The Hand of Fear is also included, as well as the now-standard photo gallery, text-only commentary, and PDF of the 1977 Doctor Who Annual and Radio Times. --Paul Gaita |

The joy of classical music. I found a deal today at the thrift store in Sylva. $1.00 a piece for classical cds so I bought 10 of them. My husband thought I was crazy he said it is something you're going through, no one listens to classical music. It didn't take long though before he got over it. He found him a nice pair of shoes for $5.00 very nice ones. God knowed he needed some shoes and he worked it out so he could get him a pair at a good price. The cds I bought is- 100 Music Treasures- Disc 4 100 Music Treasures- Disc 2 100 Music Treasures- Disc 3 100 Music Treasures- Disc 1 A Tchaikovsky Festival- Disc 1,2,3,4 The Classical Collection 50 of the world's musical masterpieces- Volume 1 Classical Piano It has been a week now since I got my hair cut to my shoulders it was long but I had to have a different kind of look. I was wanting highlights but I ended up getting a strawberry blond color. I don't know it is ok? But you would think at a beauty shop they would know what highlights is not changed a totally different color. Oh well that's life I guess at least it's not orange. I can live to tell about it. Dwayne seems to like it. Looks like summer is finally getting here! |

O Moon When I Gaze On Thy Beautiful Face By: Anonymous 1900 O Moon, when I gaze on the beautiful face, Careering along through the boundaries of space, The throught has often come into my mind If I ever shall see thy glorious behind. Life By: Grace Treasone 1963 Life is like a jagged tooth that cuts into your heart; fix the tooth and save the root, and laughs, not years, will start. My Wife Is My Skirt By: Stephen Tropp 1960 My wife is my shirt I put my hands through her armpits slide my head through her mouth and finally button her blood around my hands |

Today husband and I decided we would sit down and write a poem together. The last poem we wrote together was at the end of 2005. I start with the first line then husband goes go to the next line. We just take turns from line to line. It is fun when we write a poem together. My husband's name is Dwayne and he is a good poem writer. Here lately he has been writing a lot of poems for his new book called Hands of Dust Writing Memories it is also the name of the poem we wrote together |

Today is Mine and Dwayne's Anniversary. We will be married 9 years today. I must say that 9 years sure has gone by fast but I love him so much and I am thankful to have a good man like him. I wasn't feeling too good today. Coming down with the flu but still able to let my love show a bit grouchy though. I don't see how Dwayne puts up with me. I know that I am a mean person sometimes. God did want me to have Dwayne in my life. I remember in 1998 a month before we meet I asked God to send me a good man that would love me that's all that I wanted, I didn't ask for anything else and guess what? My prayers were answered. Dwayne does love me. I thank God for him. We had a good time today went over to his Mom and Dad's and then I drunk a glass of wine and we had some wild sex so I can't complain I am a happy cookie |

![]() Call me crazy but I just couldn't pass up this doll. I found it today at Paws Thrift Store. Looked to me like it is handmade. I think the doll scared my husband a little bit but what can I say I like weird stuff for sure. |

I watched a singing ride of a movie called "The Mikado - Gilbert & Sullivan (1939)"
A first- rate cast drawn from the celebrated D'Oyly Carte Opera Company teams up with the London Symphony Orchestra for the spectacular film adaptation of Gilbert and Sullivan's most popular operetta. Cloaked in the guise of a Japanese musical drama, The Mikado is in truth a good-natured satire of Victorian society. Martyn Green, the foremost Gilbert and Sullivan interpreter of all time, is masterful as Koko, The Lord High Executioner who finds that his first intended victim is actually the Mikado's son traveling in disguise. Sydney Granville is the robust Pooh-Bah, and radio star Kenny Baker is in top form as NankiPoo. Colorful, amusing,and entertaining.
This movie was my cup of tea but I am not sure if my husband would like it. If you like singing movies it is for you. Movies back in the 30s sure are different from the ones today and what can I say I like 30s music too. Bob Dylan has changed me so to speak. I found The Mikado at a good price of $2.00 at the paws thrift store. I just love thrift stores. Sometimes you sure can find some neat stuff and you don't have to spend a lot of money either.
I was looking through My Space today and I typed in Bryson City, NC. I was amazed at how many people around Bryson have my space pages and over toward Asheville too. Let's just say these past three weeks My Space has kept me from being bored.
Rain, Rain, Rain. Well we didn't get a whole lot of rain. Pretty soon my husband is going to have to have another car now his driver's side window won't work. The window is all the way down plus when you drive it, it sounds like the front end is about to drop anytime. Sometimes it doesn't want to start. I was trying to help Dwayne fix his window and I prayed for the Lord to help us but the window has had it. I think it's the Lord's will for him to get another car. Lord, just let Dwayne get another good car. We can't afford payments so hopefully we can find a car at a good price. My husband works so hard he has been tired a lot here lately. I love him lots though for a better man. Thank you Lord.
I hope I can keep being laid off I have until May 3rd to go. I need the rest from housekeeping. It is a hard job and I am so tired. Tired all the time but happy to be alive. Alive and kicking. |

Poem of the Day: Talking to God By: rrw
I talked with God today...
rrw is a good friend that post his poetry on Echoes of My Soul. A great writer. I like this poem. You can talk to God and your whole world makes a lot more sense. Seems like since I have been reading my bible I have had the worst problems and it is like problems to the point of where you don't want to pick your bible up. I need to keep on track if I can. I found me a nice pair of shoes at the thrift store and I was pink as a cloud. Shoes only cost $2.50 a pair of skechers. Those shoes at the shoe store cost like $60.00. They look like they have hardly been worn. Thank you God for blessing me. My mom has been sick. She has a bad case of the flu. She caught it from my brother. I hope she starts feeling better. I called her through the day today. It has been such a pretty day. The weather has been nice. How about a diet coke? That's my drink for sure. I can't make myself drink anything but that. Well off to my space we go or maybe ebay.
