February 2022 may usurp March 44 B.C.

                         as the latest 'Ides'

 After all, there's a new 'evil

 triumvirate' being invoked these

 days...

When the DEVIL carries you over the finish line, BEWARE!!!

 I stand with Ukraine

SIMPLY MOONSTRUCK:

 

THE GRANDEUR OF A WANING GIBBOUS

It is February, not June or September;

Yet, the moon is on display as though

An extraordinary harvest is shortly to announce

An impressive and important introduction...

A waning gibbous has

Never appeared so grand!

It is 18.2 days into the phase

Of  its 'post new-moon status';

No longer in Virgo's sway, this old soul

  Has entered the realm of Libra...

And I'm moonstruck

2-18-2022: HAPPY B'DAY TO A BOY WHO'S

                             A BIG BROTHER TO 3 siblings...

 

                                                

We also remember much

(precious) earlier days !!!

XOX, G. and G.

     Lots of winter birthdays in our extended family !

...and how could I forget this very sweet pic of you and new baby sister Kelly Quinn!!

OWNER of the LONELY HEARTS?

 

The Queen of Hearts

Prepared 12 tarts,

Each one a 'ruby-red rose'...

Some contained cherries

And others, red berries:

To whom they're for,

Nobody knows !!

Poem written by L.P.-G.

IT'S A ' BEAT ' THAT LIGHTS UP COLD FEBRUARY DAYS!!

                                         ...and it's soon approaching

  

I also have a particular connection to this Day of Hearts...

and why wouldn't I ?

After all, this is the day

that I've forever

'especially delighted in'

[Because my birthday

 Soon follows]...

And this familiarity is a little

   like getting a "2 for 1 special" 

...........

And everybody naturally

loves specials !

...and a particularly big hug to our little Kelly who will be

experiencing her very first Valentines' Day!
