For Fun
An Ode To Snow, Water and Life
The ode is a poetic form formed for flattery. There are three types of odes: the Horation; the Pindaric; and the Irregular. The Horation ode (named for the Latin poet, Horace) contains one stanza pattern that repeats throughout the poem--usually 2 or 4 lines. The Pindaric ode (named for the Greek poet, Pindar) comprises a pattern of three stanzas called triads. This type of ode can be composed of several triads, still the first (the strophe) and the second (antistrophe) should be identical metrically with the third (epode) wandering off on its metrical path. The irregular ode (named for no one in particular) does away with formalities and focuses on the praising aspect of the ode. Writer's Digest, Robert Lee Brewer

DREAM
Just a Black Girl & her Turtle. Dream is an African side neck turtle and beyond brilliant! She loves the sound of my voice calling her name, prefers fresh or grilled salmon over worms any day. She loves dark spaces, gentle touch & giving us a small heart attack when she goes exploring thru the house! My Wife gifted her to me 2 years ago & we just synced! This is the 5th turtle I've had throughout my life, my spirit animal.
