It’s been a week of wild weather and wilder WordPress moments, but today the moon slipped through the clouds with a smile, reminding me that even the sky resets itself.

Moon Talk
G’day everyone.
After some wet, windy, wintry days
and a worrying and wearisome
WordPress app week,
it was a relief to see the moon’s glowing face.
I looked above the tranquil trees
toward the clearing, cottony clouds
and there, at last, I saw the moon’s
handsome, happy face —
and finally we could resume
our “Happiness” conversation
after resolving the week’s
glitched frustrations and consternations
(contaminations… contradictions… take your pick).
And as the moon drifts on and the music finds its rhythm, I follow along — lighter now, and finally in step again

I’m glad to hear everything is now sorted. Thank you for sharing your Blues poem with our Blue Challenge, Ivor. 🙂

Yes, especially when the issue/glitch is their end … it took them 4 days to admit that it totally a WP problem … “we are a computer, we can’t be wrong”

Great photos Ivor. I am glad that weather has moved off and didn’t come up the coast to me. It was bad enough as it was. Only one day of horrendous winds.
Nice poem and I enjoyed the Bon Ivor song

Glad that your WP app stopped glitching, as for the weather, don’t trust it too much, because, Mother Nature is quite unpredictable, one day it’s sunny, and in the nights, the rain pour down hard, causing a flood, that’s how she keeps us on our, toes, and we can’t control her, we can only, roll with what she’s giving us.
