Son on the Move
Happiness comes when your work and words are of benefit to yourself and others.
~ Buddha
Success is the best revenge.
Don't look a gift horse in the mouth.
Be nice to your mum.

Dog Days
The languid heart is on the porch,
slowly swinging back and forth,
trying to beat the heat.
The brain is in a maple tree,
prehensile toes around a branch,
studying its wrinkled feet.
The heart sips ice-cold lemonade,
ignoring summer's grand parade,
but the dogged eye looks out to see
who's passing by on Passion Street,
admiring all the butts and toes,
and that's the way the summer goes.

Mother and Son???
Perhaps this is
another example of Maternal Combustion!
