Her fans begged Ladysighs to sing
Some delight to us please do bring
First she cackled then she cluckled
Behind her back how they chuckled
And said she was but a ding-a-ling
Ladysighs said I tried my best
And I thank you for the request
That you thought I sang bad
Will never make me mad or sad
If you can sing better be my guest
********
When I sing I feel happy. When friends listen to me I feel lucky.
What a thrilling week this has been as we watched the flight to the moon and back. The moon has always fascinated us and some of you will be watching the next trip. Many songs have been written about the moon. No matter what we find there, the moon will always glow with romance. I gathered the songs I have tried to sing over the years. I made a blog post for most of them in the past. I don’t expect you to listen to all of them but maybe you have a favorite and will sing along.
Blue Shadows on the Trail
Fly Me to the Moon
The Moon Was Yellow
How High the Moon
Moon Glow
Blue Moon
The joy you bring to me
When you visit my blog each day
Is so sweet and delightful
What more is there to say
I haven’t much to offer
Just a rhyme or thought or two
So I made some chocolate candy
That I’ll gladly share with you
Have a piece of chocolate cake
How tasty is the icing
Take a knife in your hand
And then begin the slicing
The rich cocoa flavor
It is so very enticing
Today your share is on the house
But tomorrow I start high pricing

Way down south down San Antone way
Met a cowboy writin’ one day
And as he wrote along
I heard him singin’ a little song
It was a ditty he learned in the city
Move along to WordPress Move along to WordPress

Singin’ a WordPress Boogie his own way

Singin’ his song he is too much
Got a Texas accent with a WordPress touch
A blog is what you need
Got everything yes indeed
Singin’ a WordPress Boogie his own way
Move along to WordPress Move along to WordPress
The Daily Spur writing exercise March 24: “Write an alliteration”.
I chose to write about some of my favorite blogging buddies – with deepest respect. 
~~~~~
Brilliant Bonnie Beth bought bananas in Battle Creek.
Britta Benson babbled, bragged and boasted about her bold braininess.
Foolish Fandango fried fresh fish in Florida.
Gifted and giddy ghostmmnc got good grades in grammar school.
Strong smart sincere Sadje started shouting and screaming sweet salutations.
Whenever something’s wrong
And I know that I am right
I always bellow BOO BOO
And do it just for spite
Whenever stuff seems faulty
And is rotten more or less
I hoot and holler BOO BOO
Like everyone else at WordPress
Yesterday my post was called Softly in the Morn. I offered a poem I had written to Midnight in Moscow. I admitted I was not happy with a recording I had made putting the poem/song together. I challenged readers to imagine the words with the song.
I awoke early this morn and read a comment from Sue W saying “Excellent Ladysighs. I tried to keep up with the music, but I was too slow!”
I was so very happy and thrilled that anybody actually tried! I felt I owed Sue a recording of me trying once again to put the poem to the tune Midnight in Moscow. So early this morn I recorded and re-recorded and tried to do the best I could. I chose the lamb picture as I can imagine Sue early in the morn tending the animals on her farm. So this is for Sue.
Softly in the morn I give a deep sweet sigh
My eyes are blue as the sky
I have become your bride
At alter side by side
Happy now our wedding knot is tied
I have became your bride
At alter side by side
Happy now our wedding knot is tied
Every night now you are near to me
With you I’m ever meant to be
Loving words I say
With you I’ll always stay
And from me you will never go away
Loving words I say
With you I’ll always stay
And from me you will never go away
In the dark I see the moonlight shine
Take my hand my heart is ever thine
I feel your strong arms
I breathe in all your charms
You keep me safe from the world’s harms
I feel your strong arms
I breathe in all your charms
You keep me safe from the world’s harms
Got a honey who is waiting
Who is wondering and more
What you’re gonna give her
And just what is the score
Well you might try roses
And candy is really nice
But WordPress has something
And you’ll really like the price
Just go to her Blog
That will never make her blue
Write a super-duper comment
Maybe even write two
Surprise your little sweetie
You’ll be a great success
And forever be blogging buddies
In dear old WordPress
After I wrote this poem I saw a writing challenge to write in third person. So I tried.
The Daily Spur “Write in deep third person”.
He knew his honey was waiting and wondering what he was gonna give her for Valentine’s Day. But he worried even more about what the score between them was. He thought he might send roses or candy as they were very nice. Then he considered just mailing a card to her which probably would be at a cheaper price. But then he reckoned leaving a super-duper comment on her blog for that would never make her blue. And maybe he’d even write her two. This surprise for his sweetie would be a great success and forever they’d be blogging buddies at dear old WordPress.
I think I’ll not try that again. 
I’m blogging in my dreams blogging to extremes
Somehow in the middle of the night
I think of something to write
Rhymes they come and go
I awake with nothing to show
Don’t like the light I want the night
To blog in my dreams
I’m blogging in my dreams writing of sunbeams
Somehow when I am asleep
An idea forms from the deep
Rhymes they come and go
I awake with nothing to show
Don’t like the light I want the night
To blog in my dreams
Time to wake up!
“The best way to make your dreams come true is to wake up.”Paul Valery
“One day you will wake up & there won’t be any more time to do the things you’ve always wanted. Do it now.” Paulo Coelho

Entrance Denied
Whenever I visit and read your blog
I always feel a bit tongue-tied
I mean to leave a nice comment
But if I don’t I tried and tried
Blogs are written for fun and glee
With words that should never be snide
Of amusement I am never short
Enjoyment for you I try to provide
Leave me a comment short and sweet
And mirth and merriment I will supply
But if you’re curt or a little bit pert
Entrance to my blog I may deny
