Wonderful poem! :) Perfect timing for this poem, my oft invocation for these fire seasons :) ... 40 % chance of rain today... mostly cloudy with a high of 94° F (34.444° C)... hoping no lightning in our tinder dry hills.

Lol! A bit out of date this poem! Erin or no Erin, no cautious woman walks around wearing gems (if she has any) or her virtue!

Took a Covid shot today (every six months), but the needle got out and spilled the medicine. They gave a half doses then, so now I am half vaccinated. :(
You keep surprising me with X poems. Enjoyed this one with acrostic. (:
"Well, it’s too long for one thing "."Editing the Prairie by DON KERR"
https://poetryinvoice.ca/read/poems/editing-prairie
Scary about the Covid shot. I'm perplexed on what the schedule should be, we no longer have/need Covid cards to keep track... my last, I believe, was in September when I also got my flu shot... prolly wait until this September for the next. There appears to be minimal Covid education going on where I live.
Another "W" poem... Oh my! What a descriptive critique, lol. Enjoyed :)
"X marks" - Sage Sweetwater; X Marks the Spot... https://www.authorsden.com/visit/vie...AuthorID=29292
re Covid: Covid shot seems OK, left arm hurting a bit where the vaccine was applied, but that was expected. Ì try to keep the record with the vaccine cards. Some control and regularity are necessary even if the rules vary from country too country.In your family you all recovered from covid and I think it was because of the shots. Vaccine policy may change if the Republicans win.
Poem more challenging than most X poems. Enjoyed.
