And a brand new challenge, "Rural Thursday #1". This tomcat hangs out at an old mill where I buy fresh ground flour mixes. One nice day, I opened my van door and Mr. Tomcat just hopped right in! I picked him up and told him he had it made right where he was!
No Commitment
Ol' Tom's full of charm
rubbing my leg with a
feline smile, hoping
for a little lovin' in return.
Not promising much,
just willing to spend
a night, maybe two, before
he's off howlin' for more
at another door. His
gorgeous green eyes
honestly twinkle
"no commitment".
Perhaps that's why
I offer the porch instead.

This is for Mr. Know-it-Alls' "Friday Flash 55", a story in 55 words, no more, no less. (linking up after 8 pm every thursday evening)
This mill is over 100 year old, and this angle, believe it or not isn't her "good" side. As the traffic is busy around 4 pm, I am unable to safely walk along the side of road for the perfect location. One Saturday morning I will drag my sorry self out of bed early and get a beautiful shot of this place and share a bit of its history with you.
I have also been interviewed over at "Imaginary Garden with Real Toads - Real Toads Interview"! Thanks, Lolamouse for doing a wonderful job. I am truly, truly humbled that you selected me. So, hop on over if you get a chance, not necessarily to read about me but to check out this wonderful community of poetic encouragement. Thanks IGWRT's for the honor!
