Picture: Night sky, by SilenceinDarkness

In my yard I stood, On grass so green & cool, Rufuz by my side like he should, Staring at a cloud crossing the moon, The complex almost ours again or it will be soon… Not a whisper of a breeze, Though today it blew from the sea, A cooling zephyr to of me appease, Dropping the temp by at least 10 degrees… Spent the holiday at home, Only to a store to roam, Fireworks in the distance did blow, Nary a sound though here, Time did pass by quite slow… © ed 07/05/09

It's a good thing you gots those little gnomes and Rufuz watching over you, maybe you should think of an implant, so in case you get lost in the city, they can find out who you really are, just a thought Jersey, peace brother.

Lost in the yard, I think you got some bad weed
Although a quiet holiday at home sounds good, I had a house full
I will admit I do enjoy those family BBQs, and no we weren't serving Buzzard
Enjoyed the write
Have a great day

Hi Ed
Does Rufuz stargaze like our pooch Holly? Wonder if they see the same beauty in the stars that we do. The backyard can be a beautiful place. Cheers! Liz

A nice, quiet Fourth ... a contemplative write and beautiful piccy. Well done, Ed. Least you had your best friend at your side. =] Sure Rufuz appreciated the fact the fireworks were far away.

(((HUGS))) and love, Karla.

If you get lost in your own yard at night, how the heck did you find your way home from the store? Good thing that Rufuz knows the way.
