How Many Dogs Does It Take to Change A Light Bulb?
1. Golden Retriever:
The sun is shining, the day is young, we've got our whole lives ahead of us, and you're inside worrying about a stupid burned out bulb?
2. Border Collie:
Just one. And then I'll replace any wiring that's not up to code.
3. Dachshund:
You know I can't reach that stupid...

I think Christian Bale did say "Bloody Hell" or something if that counts...
Things to do when you're bored at Wal-Mart
1. Set all the alarm clocks to go off at ten minute intervals throughout the day
2. Put M&M's on layaway.
3. Walk up to an employee and tell him in an official tone, "I think we've got a Code 3 in house wares," and see what happens.
4. Tune all the radios to a polka station;...

Falling
by Anarkiti July 12/2001
Dance in leaps
Cry small tears
Twirl around
Have no fears
Laugh in gusts
Grab my hand
Stir up dust
As we dance to the band
This is love
This is fate
When you feel
It's not too late
To be young
Young at heart
This is love
At the very start
Dance in leaps
Cry small tears
Twirl around...

The Invitation
It doesn't interest me what you do for a living. I want to know what you ache for, and if you dare to dream of meeting your heart's longing.
It doesn't interest me how old you are. I want know if you will risk looking like a fool for love, for your dream, for the adventure of being alive.
It doesn't interest me...

First Glance
Timid glances
Of the future
With you
I glance away
Afraid to hope
Afraid of it all
Being snatched away
I take a deep breath
And smile at you.

A note to myself:
I am glad that someone has brought hope into your heart.
Now, it is up to you to turn that hope from someone else into hope for yourself.
I know that you have been sad lately,
but the only way to truly be happy is to be happy within oneself.
So take all of the wonderful things that they say to...

I am very much enjoying Anas Mitchell, she reminds me of Sufjan Stevens who also has a haunting voice:

Pretty little poem is from the song "Cosmic Love" ... Florence + The Machine

Ah! I will go watch the video! :-)
For those in the know and the not so know....

3. Sister to a younger brother like no other, who is able to leap tall buildings in a single bound and snort spaghetti through his nose with a sense of style....

anarkiti:
Thanks N! Carpe diem, my friend. Seize the day!
Continued Continuously
It flutters stutters past me
Catching grasping toying
Almost flirtatious with a hint of
Coy cruelty
Dancing, prancing, playing
With wild swirls of abandon
It caresses my face, clothes,
That tree and all its thousand leaves
It waves the flag at me with
Careless joy
The birds take flight
Leaping swooping twirling
Along its smooth waves and currents
Enjoying the brief respite randomly...

Dance of Seasons by Anarkiti
With
a puff
of effervescent air
the first tenuous gasp
of Spring arrives.
The subtle nod of Snowdrop
flirts
with the quaver of
cheerful Crocus
as they join
duets and zephyrs of Freesia.
Flounces of Mona Lisa Anemones
and
debutante Tulips
traipse
along tumbles of riotous colour.
The amaretto sun dance of Gerbera
sparkles
in
confetti
glow
of
Vivaldi,
Ravel...

you have a poet warrior but you are a romantic poet....
anarkiti:
We are both romantic poets and warriors in our own way. 
All the descriptive words in the poem are types of each variety of flower - i.e. Amaretto Gerbera, Debutante Tulip.
I used to be (still am) a professional container gardener and I worked at a specialty garden store that carried unusual bulbs and plants. I wrote this when I worked there. (It's a bit of showoffishness but I still love it.)
