Project 365- a Photo a Day! -
the letter S
Sanity Slivers
Sliding... Screaming...
"Seven Shot Scotch Slurping Song"...
Sam suddenly stopped-
standing silently still
she saw seventeen
silver salamanders sashaying-
singing sailors slipped
slithering sideways southward..
"So" she shouted
seeing something silly...
"somebody saved salt specks
simple seasoning so special.."
"Silly Sam" she said
"Stop sipping sweet sarsaparilla."
"salamanders singing .. sailors saving salt..
sometimes someone should Sleep!"

Great pic! My daffs are just starting to come up:@)
Loved your poem, and the photo of the paperwhites! I've always loved their aroma.
They bloom in her yard?? I've only seen them forced in a pot in the house. Never thought about them outside for some reason. Lovely photo.
Love the photo of the paper whites! Very nice S-poem too.
Best wishes,
Anna
