Frog Applause by Teresa Burritt for March 27, 2018

No, I DON’T want to me the “Advice Swan” meme!

Black Swan effect.

I wish I’d said that.

What about lameness, unhappiness, distrust, disrespect, nightmares, ugliness, stupidity, death, hatred, impatience, weakness, and mistrust? What about wingnuts? Or corn nuts?

So the Ugly Duckling grew up to be the Snarling Swan?

“I always eat the wings first in my bucket of KFC.” Opps!

Mercy!

No peeps in the marsh, mellow yellow.

Father’s sermonizing next Sunday will be different Sister Teresa.

To me: You Rock!

Early in the morning sunlight

Soaring on the wings of dawn

Here I’ll live and die with my wings in the sky

And I, I won’t come down no more

We apologize for the long wait, the wings of which you had ordered are to be served to you momentarily..

…and in the ‘sometimes Y camp,’ the only difference between ‘lame’ and ‘lime’ and ‘lyme’ is getting bitten by a tick. (This message brought to you by the new made-over series ‘The Tick’!)

Okay, I’ll shut up and not mention that you’re the wind beneath mine. But that is a lot of hot air.

“Misanthropy … [i]s not a personality flaw. It’s a skill.”

And while you’re at it, keep your thoughts and prayers as well.

Have the courage to appreciate beauty, dreams of truth, fear not happiness, love life, the strength to trust in success and respect inane quotations. And try the wings, they’re good here.

“The best thing about idiotic quotations on the Internet is that they can easily be verified.”-Konrad Adenauer

Ahhh, the breaking wind above my wings ….

Who asked your opinion, Black Swan?

In memory I return to Black Swan Hall, the home of Lord Henry Brinthrope, one of England’s richest and most handsome lords. Go, Our Gal Sunday (from the little mining town of Silver Creek, Colorado. I think Poppy [my long-departed maternal grandfather] spent some time there)!

It’s either a blood-orange sunset or a really hot day for quotation-hating.
