Aye or Nay?

So true

Aye... we just had an event at church Saturday where I took a number of pix of our chili cookoff/silent auction fundraiser for our youth... and some family history stuff where we use a Family Search app to see who we are related to in the room for those who participate (I had a bunch)... I took screenshots of the results... need to upload to our church's fb page tonight :) Also took some pix 2-Saturdays ago at a Nature area with those of our Thursdays at Two poetry group... need to polish up my poetry from that outing

Do you take time to smell the roses ?

(too funny)

Glad that the thread is working again!
Curious about your recent poems.

Smell roses? Which roses? There aren't any roses in this stone wilderness unless one buys them at the florist. Unless you mean that metaforically.

Enjoy resting in the garden?

I think my difficulties may have arisen due to too many smileys/emoticons... after editing a number out from my saved post (saved to the clipboard) it seemed to settle the post's mood.

I have only a few poems that I haven't posted... the most recent mulling like spiced wine.

Metaphor...

Aye... though the garden is becoming more and more a metaphor.

Enjoy resting near fountains/pools in your "stone wilderness" ?

Yeah, the LitNet page accepts only its own emogis.

Nay. If they are inside the city they usually stink, because of people pissing near them.

Occasional town visits?

Aye

Ever regift a present ?

Quote:

REGIFT | definition in the Cambridge English Dictionary
https://dictionary.cambridge.org › dictionary › regift: to give as a present something that was given to you.

Nay, very, very rarely if the present fits the receiver.
Bestowing self made presents ?

Aye... I've framed individual poems and given as gifts to my elder Grandson (Rock and Roll subject poems), hand crafted poetry books to my Daughter and 3-Grandchildren a number of Christmas' ago, hand made birthday cards with my poetry included... made a few odds and ends in woodshop in high school gifted to my Mother... and maybe a few others I don't recall just now.

Same question ?

:)

When I was a child I used to make birthday and Christmas presents for my parents. Ì remember making the Christmas crib figures out of garden earth. After some time they all lost their heads because garden earth isn't the same as clay, but I didn't know the difference.

Writing letters to distant friends / relatives?

:)

Nay... I do not keep in touch with anyone unless they live nearby or they/I can "messenger"/text them, family or otherwise... Even then I "speak"/message only when approached first (I hate to bother anyone).

Do you like friends/family to drop in unannounced ?

Nay!

Do you like meeting friends?

Aye

Carrots with peas ?

Aye.

Chicken pie?

Aye

Have you ever locked yourself out of your home ?

Several times. I used to live in an apartment that could be opened only with a key on the outside, so you can imagine.

Ever fell from a ladder?

Nay... close though

Ever trip on a sidewalk curb ?
