I recognize the movie

she's quoting

I intended to post this as a comment at Jem's blog, but the "prove you're not a robot" feature has been captured by a robot. Instead of the letters or numbers that usually turn up, I get an ad for something called Photo Sphere.* I've warned you before: This feature is not reliable. Better to approve or reject each comment as it comes.

And do not ever, as long as you live, buy anything from Photo Sphere.

Or from Migratorius, which has invaded the "My Blogs" list at this blog. (If anyone has a workable suggestion for solving this problem, I'd appreciate it. Blogspot couldn't be bothered.)

*PS: The same thing has just occurred at another blog. Maybe the problem is at my end. 

back

We've just returned from two weeks in Santa Fe, New Mexico. The good news, apart from the wonderful time we had, is that the Lord did not take my prayer (see previous post) seriously. Northern New Mexico was blessed with frequent rain during our stay.

Time for my midsummer break.  See you later this month.

Lord, make it rain –

but not yet

With apologies to Saint Augustine

spin

Here's one I just posted as a comment here, in response to a comment from Gillena. I thought I would post in this space, just like a real haiku.

the peacock's tail

Posted as a comment at Juliet's blog. The peacock sighting occurred at the Los Angeles County Arboretum and Botanical Garden in Arcadia, California. You can also occasionally encounter a peacock out for a stroll around town. They are one of the town's chief attractions (well, there is the Santa Anita racetrack), but I've heard that some more recently arrived residents want to get rid of them.
