Mermaid (Ramification)

that they failed
more than once in life
before they did prevail.

I wish that I could write one, about that perfect hue
But nothing rhymes with orangeFeatured Shared StoryThis orange poem has tickled my fancy. Let me give it a go...
Porridge is a dreary word that always rhymes with orange.
While strawberries and blueberries may make a soothing pair.... -
Christmas Golf
Back in October a Christmas wish I made.
A brand new set of golf clubs before next year I played.
Then on Christmas morn, with my eyes I spied
An oblong box under the tree, with ribbon wrapped and tied.
