A HARBINGER MOST SACROSANCT

June days are harbingers most sacrosanct;

Humid whispers streaming  temperate bliss,

Balming  hurts through pomp and purpose ...

Call me crazy, but I could never tire

Of such beautiful composition deposited

right outside my doorstep...

Her sparkle is so effortless and refined;

And, of course, all the things

'SUMMER'

Tenders quite intrepidly...

Thus, toss me the keys

To month number-six

On our world calendar;

An uncontested beauty ...

One you'd fall for, over and over.

Shout praise, should such

ELEGANCE

Grace your knowing gaze;

( What a tragedy, I think,

If it should not). 

                                                                                                    poem written by L.P.-G. / 2018

A PROPOS THIS UNFILTERED FEMALE NAMED ROSEANNE:

                 **********
What do I think led to 

her malignant tweet?

I believe her brain circuitry went completely haywire...

Is it possible she's bipolar, as well, and her actions were a manifestation of aggressive mania?

I certainly can't rule that out at all.

None of the explanations mean that I condone such behavior. Of course, I don't. It's just that I can't shake my suspicion that something might be awry with Ms. Barr's synapses and neurotransmitters...

MSNBC's 'Everyday Racism in America': A racial reckoning must happen, leaders say

Keep the proper conversations going!

Great job, MSNBC!!

EPILOGUE: As is sometimes the case, I weigh in on subject matter [via blogging] without knowing that some facts have already been established. Ms. Barr, herself, had acknowledged several YEARS ago that she does, indeed, suffer from a host of mental issues. Among them: ADHD, bipolar disorder, OCD, and autism spectrum. In the past she has also remarked about multiple personality disorder. The latter is one of the hallmarks of dissociation. Hence, I am not at all sure that she is 100% in control of her actions even though I find her tweet otherwise indefensible and just very, very sad. This appears to be a lose-lose situation. On that note, silver lining, where are you! Show yourself in some manner!!

MAY DAY ...oh, lovely MAY DAY

Oh, this joyous month of May!

As we end the 'number one' day;

Robins dream in pleasing shades,

'Morrow's doves are mournful-made.

Does your soul not leap and sing?

As you gaze upon this spring?

Greens are here and there, once more.

Paradise has cracked her door!

P.S. Happy Birthday Dad ... in the world beyond this one. (You would have been 89 today).

'NORTHERNERS' WAIT JUST TOO D*** LONG

Literary types recognize who it was [who], years prior, opined that 'April' is the cruelest month. 

April is the cruelest month, breeding lilacs out of the dead land, mixing memory and desire, stirring dull roots with spring rain.

T.S. Eliot

We all have a reward center in our brain, the latter located in a tiny area known as the nucleus accumbens. Moreover, this reward center is left in a state of "near starvation" when springtime weather takes a very long time to get here!

WHEN April prepares her green traffic light,

the world thinks

 Go.     

Christopher Morley

...so I can totally understand why a vacation paradise is the perfect RX for many of us!

It helps keep the nucleus accumbens very happy!

WE WANT TO GO BACK!
