What is the Meaning of Life?

Poetry that I wrote back in high school. Nothing major. I just haven't written any poetry in awhile, well, unless you count the sarcastic stuff that I can't show to anyone.

Just for the record, my opinions, hopes, dreams, etc., are just that. They have absolutely no reflection on my employer. Not that I'm going to tell you who that is... I am the (self proclaimed) Queen of the Universe. Join my cadre of loyal subjects and all will be well in your world. My mantra is "Embrace Chaos. Adore Chaos. Give Chaos a big kiss on the mouth." NEW mantra this week - "No one ever suspects the socks." Email me at greenduckiesgirl(at)comcast(dot)net

If you look closely, you will see that this support supports absolutely nothing. There had been an earthquake and the building was not repaired to remember the devastation.  Posted by Hello

Tomb in the Chapel of Bones.  Posted by Hello

When Beth and I were lost in Evora, one of the things I saw on the way (it was 3 hours, there was a lot to see), was this little flower growing between the cracks of the sidewalk. Ain't it cute? I was tempted to pluck it for my scrapbook but resisted the urge. So it's probably still there. Unless someone stepped on it. Posted by Hello

I love birds. And I thought this was cute. At first glance, it looks like the pigeon is trapped. But he soon flew away.

This was taken at night, without a flash. Normally a picture like this would be discarded but we liked the fact that it looks like musical notes.

Evora is not pronounced the way you would think. It's actually pronounced Evra. Which is very hard to remember.

I would recommend to anyone who is considering a trip to Europe to go to Portugal. Lisbon and Evora can not be missed. Seriously.

One minute the path was empty, the next minute there was a deluge of children. I'm not sure what the boy in the orange is doing...it almost looks like he might be crying.

Flat Coke - Heart Shaped Ice Cubes

Johnny took us to a bar to meet a friend of hers and experience Portie night life. After walking up the hill from hell (Mountain is how I would describe it), we made it to the Hemp House. It's a techno bar. Yes. The excitement never ceases. Anyway, here is Beth's drinking glass with the heart shaped ice cubes.

Lemon Tree so pretty

If you look closely, you can see the yellow window in the background. Beth got a great picture of it up close. Yellow and blue are very prominent colors in Portugal.
