OCTOBER # 97 ....FRIDAY WRITINGS


 october

my birthday month

still here 

miraculous

considering

i've been wandering the jungle

outside the herd

marching to the beat

of a different drum

 

my guardian angel

is doing a great job

  2. Does that make you Libra or Scorpio? Maybe you are on the cusp like my mother was. For your gutsiness and passion, also your plain speaking at times, I'd guess you a Scorpio like me ... but then again, your deep love of art and beauty seems very Libran. In any case, Happy Birthday! (And, from the content of your poem, I reckon you're Scorp. Catch you in the jungle, where our superb guardian angels can say hi to each other.)

    1. Am a Libran and not on the cusp of Scorpio:) I think our Guardian Angels have already met.

  3. Well my dear, I have always marched to the beat of a different drum ... and decidedly better off as a result!! You as well. Cheers.

  5. October is the best month to be born in, when one marches to the beat of a different drum. All things weird and wonderful belong to October, so you should feel right at home. If I could've chosen my birthday month, it would've been October.

    Happiest birthday month!

  6. Hopefully those of us who march to a different drum beat learn to embrace it - it isn't always easy. I love the Virginia Wolf image - she looking elegant sitting on the walkway with her sweet dog.

  7. This is wonderful, Rall. The quote fit right in.
