It's Boxing Day I'm bored to tears I need something to do to take away my drears I'll think I'll have a little sit and think about what to do I know a carpet picnic will make me feel brand new First I'll grab some finger food there's a plate or two leftover next I need some lobster or some sole that's come from Dover Maybe a little wine to I, my stomach settle I only need a glass or six to keep me in fine fettle Perhaps some sweet or nuts to finish off this treat my carpet picnic's ready for me to sit and eat Just one more thing its needing that's something I can't do what my picnic really needs here,is the presence of you Religion is for people frightened about going to hell - Spirituality is for people who have been there.

Kethry love, this 'puter of mine is having a sulk again. Because I've just replied to this. I said I wanted to come on this picnic. And naturally I was charming and the wit, it was razor sharp. But since it's disappeared to the outer cyber space it's now gone forever. (So I could say anything about it and who would know   )This is truly wonderful love, as always I adore it. You are so brilliant at this Take care Slushy Mushy Take back the hope you gave,- I claim Only a memory of the same Robert Browning |

This was wonderful Kethry! What a lovely idea to take melt the "after-Christmas" chaos, very nicely written. I'm heading out for Christmas #2 shortly ... no Boxing Day wind-down for me unfortunately, but I like your idea MUCH better!  Happy Holidays and Best wishes, /Kit |

Cute! Funny, too. My daughter's here this year instead of me traveling after Christmas to her. We're probably going shopping. We have not a thing to return, it was all so perfect! Wish us well, though. I'm sure the crowds will be great, and we'll be late to get those perfect sales. I think I'll think of your carpet picnic, maybe too much. |

Kethry love, no love I wouldn't. I only ever stretch the truth to my sisters. So if your name isn't Penelope, Patricia, Francessca, Marcella, or Melissa you are as safe as houses. This is wonderful, so can I pull up a cushion love and join in Take care Slushy Mushy Take back the hope you gave,- I claim Only a memory of the same Robert Browning |

This sounds lovely; a magic carpet would be much appreciated to get from here; as we're surrounded by mounds of snow!!! What a lovely write, as always!!!! Pepper "A poem is the very image of life expressed in its eternal truth." Percy Bysshe Shelley |

Kathleen, come sit and enjoy the feast. Sven you bring the candles, you always gives light anyway so this should not be different. Pepper, Snowed in, what I could do with that image Just a little frivolity before my New Year's resolution for only serious, cerebral and esoteric stuff, kicks in.
