The La Kaduta is a short, quick, fun form to compose in.
It can be about anything, leaving one’s creative side
completely open to its freewheeling whimsies.

The FLIRT!

Distinct,
she winked
then smiled!
Beguiled …
all my spheres within – began to spin,
when with ribald grin – she gushed, “Come in!”

IN CLOSING:
Start this New Year out with something new.
Have fun, get creative, be naughty, nice,
filled with sauerkraut or spice.
Let your imagination go,
your hot ink flow.

Thanks again for joining-in … see ya’ll in 2026! ⁓ Richard🖌
