a plain room
------------
             with a Record player as its centerpiece
             --------------------------------------
                                      BLOCKING
out the cacophonous lull of an everyday monotony of everyday routine -- avoiding rain hitting an’ plinging randomly chosen points on the tin awning, and wind howling its whistled yelps, wines of the womb of a seashell, barks of the neighborhood pup shackled up to the oak tree begging just to run and play, even the weatherman can be heard proclaiming:        
      (And now one last look at the weather, Bill…)
"The sun should appear around midday tomorrow, and it looks allll Clear for the rest of the work week, now Back to you Jacklyn."

colorfully creative
I'll pass on the livestock aromas
interesting tune concepts
art and photos featuring bowls of fruit generally put me into a deep sleep

but I enjoyed this bit of whimsy

Hi, there! When I saw your pen name, I suspected that you are an artist ~ and after reading these exquisite vignettes, I now know that I was correct in my assumption!

Welcome aboard the pip ship!

Giving you a warm, welcoming hug,
Earth Angel
