Premium Member A Past Pastime
Humpty Dumpty lived in make-believe land, like dreamy shadows get long; And he dwelt in a house near a wall, among merry, crimson, oriole throngs. He had a figure equally rotund and jolly, and was therefore loved by many; And made his living as an apt teacher, as Thursday learns from Wednesday. He helped the spirited children to learn,...

Premium Member Glad I Found My Pastime
Kittens in purple, pink, red, yellow and blue Calicos, tabbies, Manx and Siamese too. Sitting on brooms with witches in every hue, I reach for my paints, creativity long overdue. A serious artist who lives in her woo-woo, New brushes are here, which is a huge coup. I give my pirate queen a darling new hair up do. Some may think my...

Premium Member Favorite Pastime
Along the the endless beach, where waves touch the sand. Ocean treasures within reach, picked up with a loving hand. What lies beneath the surface, a wonderous world we can't see. Life flourishes in quiet peace. Hidden within the depths, so free. The sea's treasure becomes our own. Searching for seashells, still a delight. A pastime that's never outgrown. From day's dawn, to last fading light. A...

A favorite pastime of mine is to watch wildlife from our front porch or window. Kentucky bluegrass provides a perfect backdrop for deer drinking from the lake, pretending not to watch fawns running in circles, bucking and playing in the fields. Frosty, our horse, grazes right along with the turkey foraging for meals. Cardinals, blue...

Some like to go outside and hit a ball, when others walk really fast in the mall. Many choose to sit and watch T.V., then there are those who fish in the sea. Several bake goodies in their fine kitchen, while a part want to be a magician. There is a portion that sing and dance, and of...

My Favorite Pastime Is Me
Now I will tell you about myself, My looks, my loves, my desire for approval. First my favorite past time, I'll say Is to play games with Sun1ite, my human. I bark at odd times in the day, Just to get let outside, For I know she'll hand me a treat, As frustrated as she is inside. And then there's my love of...

My Favourite Pastime
My Favourite Pastime I long for a cozy blanket Secure and wise. As warm as a down filled pillow and a snuggly five year old. Never alone or adrift, My memory stands, with my favourite past time. It extends as far back as the ends of the earth or heaven sublime. As deep as a murky ocean with foamy tides, rising and...

A Brutal Battle of America's Pastime
Going to war armed with a metal pole, A stiff breeze cuts the summer air. Becoming safe is the primary goal, And the chattering and cheering begin to blare. I stop to turn and face my enemy, He stares me down, ready to battle. I can only imagine what lies ahead of me, But I'm tough, so I know I won't rattle. The...
