As I went about my day.....I thought about Dr. Seuss. How much I enjoyed his rhymes and his stories in my youth. The truth of the matter is this.....Sometimes I feel like the grinch and my heart doesn't measure above an inch. I feel sad ...mad and blue.....and when I feel I have been disrespected...my reply is " Who are you talking to?" I don't live in a zoo.....and never met a "who", but needed them to give me a clue? Aachoo! Bless you! Who me? yes you.....couldn't be. Then who? Anywho....I don't like to argue and fight .....my intentions are to do what's right. I write due to a love affair I have with words.....adjectives ....nouns and verbs. You may call it cheating....but its not that at all. I believe they're all beautiful ......and allow them to shine when I write about our time at the ball. How beautiful she was standing there unassuming in a dress that was red. I approached her from the rear of course and whispered in her ear about my horse parked outside. I was curious to know if she wanted to ride. Aside from her beauty her scent drove me crazy.....as it entered my system my nervous system became lazy. I could hardly concentrate on what I should do.....instead of level ten ....my mind was on level two. What should I do?.....my grinch like heart had gathered a spark. As words danced around in my mind....and massaged my hardened heart .......my anger was released to create a work of art. The feelings that were trapped inside were allowed free reign. The substance that they contained.....revealed a man who should have gone insane.....it's plain to me .....and why wouldn't it be?.....that suddenly my mind is free...... At least for the moment......I don't like green eggs and ham....but I do enjoy money in my hand. Yes! I do.....and if I gave you a few dollars ....I'm sure you would too. How much I enjoy when money is around....although she doesn't stay long. As soon as Bill comes along ......she suddenly is gone. My pockets become empty and my mood not so bright. I feel like a jilted lover.....whose been abandoned late at night. She never returns.....but I am able to hold her again......until Bill arrives and demands her attention again. I don't like him....he's always around like the first and fifteenth. **** Bill is what I often say.....I'm a little Suessed out ....forgive me for my rant if you can I say.....Have you seen Thing one and Thing two? I wonder if they can come out to play?
