The Wordsmith's Forge

Here's a look at Carrie Fisher's place in Star Wars history as referenced in The Last Jedi.  And now I want this image on a t-shirt.  I don't have "she persisted" or General Organa yet.

Today is sunny and mild.  Birds are flittering around.  Leaves are on the ground.  Not much color yet, but plenty of shedding.

I planted 15 crocus 'Spring Beauty' in the wildflower garden.  These are purple and white. 

EDIT 10-13-17: I went back out and planted 10 Eranthis cilicica.  They are small yellow flowers that bloom very early.

We're not there yet, but we're getting closer.  Boy Scouts will start accepting girls. 

Regrettably the Girl Scouts have complained about this.  Frankly, I think they should be grateful to have someone else available for the tomboys they don't like and barely tolerate.

This poem is from the October 3, 2017 Poetry Fishbowl. It was inspired and sponsored by mama_kestrel. It also fills the "liminal time" square in my 10-1-17 card in the Fall Festival Bingo.
