• Tablescape And Trash To Treasure All In One

  Acres of hidden treasure… In boxes and bins… All holding hidden beauty… All latent~silent gems… Under piles amassed… A hoarder’s stash… Of would be~could be… And should have beens. The Muse gathered her coinage… And smartly thus… Bought a wondrous bounty… As to make pirates lust…. A silver teapot battered about… A bird whose wing was weak… Not secure or truly stout… Paper roses wrinkled and worn… Their edges thread tattered and torn… Potpourri whose scent had gone… Yes, the [...]

• Merry Christmas Miss Boog

  In the basement dark and deep lurks a lioness who rarely sleeps. She stalks the forests of children’s trees which are gilded with ornaments in lieu of leaves. She nibbles and she gnaws and bats the tinsel with her paws. Quietly she listens as the lights glisten to hear the tunes play in the room. Her favorite lines are those that rhyme she meows them till dawn. Say a Merry Christmas to The Muse’s Miss Boog Padawan ! (please forgive [...]

• ~Clucking~

  A farm gal Muse has lot’s to do… She tromps through mud in boots not shoes. Our little feathered cuties need lots of care… Warm fall sun and cool crisp air. Clucking and chirping a barn yard tune… They sing until they spy the moon! (aren’t they cute?) Did you like this? Share it:Tweet

• Monday’s Post ~ Prose & Blue Monday

  When I was very young, (and still~even now) I would look at pictures ~ paintings…and make up stories! At times, they were not exactly as the artist had intended… Such is this work of a young, (oh, so young Muse), who fell under an enchanting spell of Tristan and Isolde. The Plummet A little maiden stood… Up high above the earth… The little m aid knew not… Her weight or girth… For suddenly… The sky gave way… And she fell [...]

• “Tablescape Tuesday” ~ Picture

  White dishware can offer so many options… Each holiday or event can be celebrated with basic pieces of white china or stoneware. For this Christmas table, the colors of silver and blue are combined with white to create this modern setting…the objective…to create an effect that would play off the branches (seen in the vases)… Add some wispy white feathers, blue and white snowflake tablecloth, miniature tea lights,(sprinkled with gold glitter) and a few silver ornaments…voila, the table becomes an [...]

• My Response To The Author Of When Least Expected

  I whole~heartedly agree.Words can poison, words can sting, words can crush…if they are used with ill will and malice.And yet, the same pen can create love, joy, beauty and prose….it can spill words onto parchment so eloquent…the reader is taken to tears…The difference lies within the author, the writer, the user…and that is indeed a power that can be mind chilling and yet so satisfying for the soul.Love,The Muse Did you like this?
