Magpie Tales The Red Chair


Please visualize a red chair
in front of a deconstructed window
inside a ramshackle old building 
Until Google decides to fix it's glitch
I am unable to post any images.
Grr. Thanks for your patience.
Since I have none.**
**at long last I have figured out
 a sneaky work around so here's the image ....ta dah!
~~~~~~~~

I sit here 
In a red rage unable 
To communicate

~~~~~~~~~~~~

This is my favorite hour
One to relish and enjoy
Watching the power
Of the gently setting sun

~~~~~~~~~~

to actually see the red chair and read others posts
please go to Tess Kiincaid's Magpie Tales here:

  3. 'in a red rage'...I've been there.

    Google plagues me too. You are not alone. I have updated to Chrome and flip back and forth. When one is not cooperating the other sometimes feels sorry for me and works.

  8. As i have said since the late 1970s, to err is human, but to really fowl things up requires technology.

    Excellent take on the subject.

  16. Lovely poem, Kathe. Google can be a right royal pain in the arse - I was unable to post comments for 2 days a few weeks ago! It's very frustrating. Hope all's well soon...X

  17. Surely it's a rage maker. So far, I'm not having that problem, but I do know how quickly it can appear and how long it takes for 'repair'. The sunset is so renewing.

I love comments and will attempt to reply to each one. However, lately I have been getting "Unknown" comments that are linked to some sort of web page. I will never open this sort of comment and will immediately mark as spam. I am not interested in opening something that could be detrimental to my blog security etc. Never have enjoyed hackers! Thanks!
