Monday-Tuesday
AND...
My brother is in the hospital with two clots in veins leading out of the liver. He does have a good doctor that is running lots of test, so I'm confident he'll get to the bottom of the problem.
The HH has pneumonia and acute bronchitis.
Other than that, it's same-o-same-o at the Cox household:)

Fox Buddy and Can You Catch My Flow
~*~
Lidy Wilks has a new release and blog tour giveaways.
Why Write Poetry?
My first published poem was in my junior high school
yearbook. I titled it “A Rose is a Lovely Flower.” And it’s true
because a rose is a lovely flower. Plus it also stood for love. But the
use of the rose in the poem was analogy for people.
A rose is a flower. Though we’re human, like the flower,
we all have our own distinct personalities. That makes us different. And
like how the red rose stands for love, yellow for friendship, we as
individuals stand for something too. Whether
to others, ourselves or our personal beliefs.
The rose and William Shakespeare opened up a new train of
thought in my early teen years. Questions about why we’re so different
when we’re all human. When we’re all the same. Questions begging to be
answered.
Did I know I’d seek the answer in a poem? No, I did not.
But somehow I knew, that though I wouldn’t come close, writing poetry
would set me on the path to finding it. An answer that couldn’t be
explained or understood with other opinions alone.
And that’s what I’ve been doing ever since. Writing poetry to search for answers.
