    Pokerface

    Writing through Storms

    Writing is my lighthouse whenI'm lost at sea in thedark fogamong the sirens singing theirseductive songs.It is my netthat catches fish to feedme when I'm starving and afraid.An albatross silently looms, whilewaves swell and break against myraft.The kraken yawns...

    • Grandma knew exactly what to do with us. 6 of us & she never lost her temper. Good memories…Thank you, girl

    • hello beautiful Willow this was a twist I didn’t know where you were going it’s very clever and relateable I had to clean my dad’s grandfather clock when naughty 💕

      • I hated getting in trouble. It was usually my cousin & her brother. She was ornery as hell too, would try to hug him when he was so pissed. Grandma had to leave the room to hide her giggles. Thank you, Brenda 🧡

    • Brilliantly penned, Willow. Into the book it belongs! Amazing storytelling my friend, I can relate. Not that I got in trouble a lot, but when I did, not a fun time by any means of the imagination. Excellent work, as always. Appreciate you.

      • Always seemed like disappointing grandma was worse than the punishment itself. So I did my level best to not get in trouble much. Not with grandma, at any rate. 😂 Thank you, my friend

    • I love “old timey” pieces. It brings back the good ol days, even if we didn’t know that they were, then. I would’ve preferred the chair over the usual ass whuppin.
      But eh, I survived.
      It’s always interesting to me how others lived and dealt with their own upbringings. This was a wonderful story indeed. I raised my kids on “time out” instead of spankings, as your story reflects. It’s a better choice.
      Very entertaining write, Willow. Bravo.

      • Don’t get too cozy in the “old timey” corner. I’m all over the map these days. Who knows where it will take me next?

        Yeah, my girl was raised on time out too. Little rascal knew exactly when she was about to land there too. Look me right in the eye & say “I go to time out now?” Good kid…that girl gave me side aches holding in the laughter.

        Thank you for the visit. Good to see you roaming the new halls

    • It’s good to see YOU here, too.
