Gauntlet

Here ye, here ye, here ye
to all family
friends
colleagues
book clubbers
and readers of one sort or another.
Here is the challenge.

Make a poem out of this:

sailing on Jupiter's tears

A phrase I ran across at work today.
Isn't life interesting?

For inspiration here is a poem my friend Lynn found.

God Says Yes To Me

by Kaylin Haught

I asked God if it was okay to be melodramatic
and she said yes
I asked her if it was okay to be short
and she said it sure is
I asked her if I could wear nail polish
or not wear nail polish
and she said honey
she calls me that sometimes
she said you can do just exactly
what you want to
Thanks God I said
And is it even okay if I don't paragraph
my letters
Sweetcakes God said
who knows where she picked that up
what I'm telling you is
Yes Yes Yes


Gentlemen, and ladies, sharpen your pencils.
