Thank you for your comment on 'Growing Up' MC. Yeah, I've always loved rhyme scheme and alliteration, so I try to include them whenever possible in my poems

There's a difference between understanding and accepting. What suits our interests and aspirations are easily followed. Religious obligations are often easily overlooked because there's no religious policing anymore, but government's legal and societal moral policing is feared and implemented, either half heartedly or due to legal pressures upon the people.

I am admittedly a bit of a Humbugger, but fortunately (for the family) my wife is the anti-dote.
A fine balance

Yes, I should have put that phrase "Read All About It"
in the poem.
Good idea!

Mosey has two syllables with the sofy y at the end
and is therefore easier on tongue and mind.
"Jaunt" to me is too harsh! With that mean T at the end!
Just my opinion.

I prefer to Mosey, rather than jaunt!

words do travel
they change their spelling
kind of like a disguise
they look different
but still...could be recognized
in a police line-up.

I had to look up "piffle"
meaning piddling or a trifle

I'll let you know how that turns out!

Thanks for stopping by and sharing your thoughts for my work "Lifeline of pets and us". Yes, it is sad our pets departs from the world early. Might be because they love us lot more than how much we love them and they can't bear if we depart before them and hence they have short life span. Moreover for many people pets are not family but a piece of entertainment whom they can abandon like furniture as per their convenience. And that is why almighty calls the pure soul early so they don't have to bear earthly pain.

A Conservatorship is a legal construct designed for people who
are incapable of handling their own affairs.
The court appoints someone else to handle them for the person
incapacitated. Unfortunately, this process is often abused
and the person loses all their civil rights.
(see Brittany Spears).
Her story has been all over the news here lately.
