The Flower
The Flower
by Alfred, Lord Tennyson
Once in a golden hour
I cast to earth a seed.
Up there came a flower,
The people said, a weed.
I cast to earth a seed.
Up there came a flower,
The people said, a weed.
To and fro they went
Thro' my garden bower,
And muttering discontent
Cursed me and my flower.
Thro' my garden bower,
And muttering discontent
Cursed me and my flower.
Then it grew so tall
It wore a crown of light,
But thieves from o'er the wall
Stole the seed by night.
It wore a crown of light,
But thieves from o'er the wall
Stole the seed by night.
Sow'd it far and wide
By every town and tower,
Till all the people cried,
"Splendid is the flower!"
By every town and tower,
Till all the people cried,
"Splendid is the flower!"
Read my little fable:
He that runs may read.
Most can raise the flowers now,
For all have got the seed.
He that runs may read.
Most can raise the flowers now,
For all have got the seed.
And some are pretty enough,
And some are poor indeed;
And now again the people
Call it but a weed.
And some are poor indeed;
And now again the people
Call it but a weed.

....drivin on a flat........sex on wheels
....I have always heard that when a chick turns 50 she becomes a
horny little vixen...at least that’s what my hubby tells me......he’s counting
on it to kick in anytime......lol......seems that many women over 50 are having
good...even great sex.....some say they are having the best sex of their
lives.......which is kinda funny.....when I was in my 20’s I thought I was
having good sex.....then in my 30’s I knew I was ...or at least I thought I
was having great sex.....then I had babies....of course I had a period of a
few...ok ok....like maybe 5 years that I would throw my hubby a
bone.....haha....I should say let my hubby throw me a bone.....every so
often......mostly when he bitched....complained & whined about no
sex........at that time in my life I was wrapped up tight in raising
kids...dealing with baby weight that just seemed to hang around....the
house...the bills...blah blah blah...the last thing I was in the mood to do when
I finally fell into bed a spread my legs.....I wanted sleep!
...my 40’s were more of a self discovery of sorts...sexual &
otherwise......I decided it was time for me to reconnect with my hubby....in
other words...get our kink on....lol....now at 50 with my kink in full force...I
think sex has changed....or maybe its more that my attitude...or something had
changed...I look & think about sex in a completely different was than when I
was younger.
..... my ride on the hormonal roller coaster is slowing
down a bit....at least I think so...my hubby may say otherwise.....and if he
does....that's exactly why he gets to spend time on the “you're not getting
any” wagon..lol

FIERCE.... by shannonlshaw
FIERCE
Cue the music,
Hit the spotlight.
I’m your girl,
lets go.
I’ll take you
for a ride,
Somewhere you’ve
never been.
Come see my show!
Ya I have a cock,
but I’m all woman
on this stage,
I own it,
I’m fierce baby.
Dance with me,
I know you want to.
Let the liquor flow
and the base kick.
Watch the beautiful boys
sweat on the dance floor.
This is my
Heaven.
........love a good drag....
......my friend Hank....well he needed a little help in the make
up department......maybe it was the after 5 shadow...or the old lady house
frock...could have been the hairy legs......everyone know he was no drag
queen...just a boy in a dress......we were kicked out of the gay club......can
you imagine getting kicked out of a gay club.....lol no harm..we went back
several times after that...of course.....so where do ya good when you are
dressed up & wanna party.......a straight bar of course...not just any
straight bar...a straight hick bar in a small town......of yea...I walked in
& asked the bartender...I happen to know him...if I could bring in my
friend....he looked at me kinda strange & said yes....I then said...no no
no....my “friend”.....he’s dressed in drag......then he said – Hell yes....bring
him in! This could have been on he’ll of a mistake....but we were stoned &
happy...so we went for it.....
....I have to say that little hick bar had never seen the likes of
Hank before....most people knew he was a guy in a dress....but as the evening
went on...and the alcohol down...in shots.....Hank’s panty hose came off.....but
not those Less Press-On nails......I will never forget hearing Hank say in a
drunken slur...”.look how long my fingers look – who knew I had such pretty
hand” lol......it still makes me laugh. Of course if you mix alcohol &
hicks...you are bound to get a bar fight......Hank being the many man he
is.....not to mention drunk & stoned....when the fight broke out...he jumped
into action..dress..heels...wig and all...grabbed one of the fellas around the
neck & took him outside.....well...all women who wear dresses know that if
you put your arms up your dress goes up......I guess they don’t teach that to
guys.......Hank gets this drunken hick outside...still in a head lock hold the
hick looks down ......Hank...who didn’t wear panties under his hose was hanging
out below his dress.....the hick looked up at him & said “ you an’t no
girl”....hilarious.....true story. I laughed till I cried.......Hank was just
happy he didn’t loose any of his Lee Press-on nails.
....I have been lucky to have had many friendships with guys who
dress in drag...some just for fun and others who do it for a living......one
thing that I have learned first hand from each & every one is tolerance
& acceptance. I have been honored with the opportunity to create
fabulous gowns...over the top hats...plus so much more.....someday I hope to tap
into my creativity & do more...for now I am just so thrilled to have been
part of this over the top..flamboyant...wonderful group of guys. I love ya
Cher & Barbara..wink wink
....I
know you wanna know more about drag queens......maybe you are not ready to do
the club thing...so check out the movie “Adventures of Priscilla, Queen of the
Desert”.....or '”To Wong Foo, Thanks For Everything Julie Newmar”..
....and of
course “Wigstock”.....for a twist check out “Connie & Carla”...two chicks
dress like men who dress like woman...way too funny. No matter what your
thoughts are...drag queens are dedicated to their craft.....they need to know
pop-culture history..be masters of makeup and have the ability to create a
variety of characters.

…bucket list…better yet…a
F%$#-it
list….
…when I tell people that I have a 50 things to accomplish my
50th year list the one thing they all say…”you mean a bucket list?” ..well kinda..sorrta..but not really….let’s
just say I have no plan to kick the bucket at the end of my 50th
year….. in my mind a bucket list is a list of dreams & desires of all
the goals I plan to accomplish before I die….we spend…or at least I have spent
my entire life worried..thinking..preoccupied ..blah blah blah by what others
thought of me……yea yea…no need to physco analize me…I think it comes from
insecurities….lack of confidence…..self-worth..bullshit……
…so here
I am at a crossroads in my life…50…..50..50…..its time I do & say what I
want…what I feel…what I want..what I need….what I will accept…what I won’t
accept….the rest of the bullshit can go on my F%$#-it list. Ye – I said my F%$#-it list………it’s the list
of things I no longer have the time nor the energy to put up with in my
life. …the F%$#-it list is best created
after a few drinks when you can just rattle off the top of your head…it’s the best
time to make the F%$#-it list…if you really think about when are you’re the most
open …when you are toasted! Your F%$#-it
list doesn’t have to be perfect….kiss your type-A self-goodbye……
….don’t “should”
yourself to death…not to be confused with shit yourself…ladies that will happen
soon enough….if it hasn’t already…lol “should”
is a sister to “guilt”….time to cut it loose…stop the I should be taking time
for myself…I should be doing things for everyone else…get over it…F$#@-it!
…don’t talk yourself out of your dreams …don’t share your
dreams with those who don’t support you…stop with all the lame ass excused….don’t
get caught up in the what its..just decide you are gonna do it and say – F%$#-it!
..lies..lies…lies
….so who was it that invented
thongs? When exactly did the thing
craze start? I have heard over &
over again from chicks that thongs are comfy when you get used to them……even
flabby asses look good in a thing…tummys..not so much…..I will admit I will
wear a thong…..and yes after you wear it awhile you do get used to it…but as
far as it ever really being comfy….well maybe after a few shots of tequila….who
was it that said a little bit between your cheeks & gums…not really sure
they meant a thong…but hey…women talk…after a few….ok more than a few shots…..almost
anything between your cheeks is comfy…lol
…do we as woman lie about the comfort level of our undergarments
to minimize the pain we put our bodies through????....I think HELL YES!
…crawl into a pair of spanks and your voice
goes up an octave….but yet we women say they are comfy….really sistra???
….stilettos…one of my favs….nah…they don’t
hurt my feet – NOT! They can be arch
killers……talk about a pain in the arch…haha…..the only time stilettos don’t
hurt a chicks feet is when she is on her back & her legs are in the air…….they
still make our calves look awesome…….it just hurts to walk to the bathroom afterwards…lol
…hair removal…..pain never stops us chicks….ripping
the hair off our who whos to our eyebrows and yes even our upper lips…damn that
hurts like a mother f$#@er...but we chicks do
it….we call it personal maintenance…..
…it’s too funny the pain we put ourselves
through for beauty….will we ever stop – HELL NO!
....so let's talk sexy
…what does it mean to dress sexy…..wearing
short…tight skirts or sporting a lacy bra under a sheer blouse…or exposing your
cleavage for all to see? ...I will admit I have worn or wear all of those from looks time to time…..depending on how I feel at the
time…dressing sexy for me is about acknowledging myself as a sexual woman..its
about letting the world know that being 50 isn’t an ending….but a beginning ….juicy..tantalizing….energizing
time of life…….
..sexy is a state of mind….you can be sexy
no matter your age…I think the secret is tapping into our own sexuality...our
feelings…attitude …you can rock a sex attitude wearing jeans & a tshirt
just as much as wearing stockings and 3 inch F*#@ me
heels….
…dressing sexy is really all a mind game we
play with ourselves…..when I dress to catch the eye…wink wink..nod..nod..lol…I
think about how I want men to react…..yes – of course my hubby….come one
ladies..lets be honest here…..we want all…ok most men to turn & look..check
us out when we walk by…..so just admit it…..I think about what message do I
want to put out there…am I interested in a playfull tease..or flat out
seduction..lol…do I want the fellas yearning to touch from across the room ..or
do I want to ignite an immediate fire…..so much to think about when dressing
sexy….choosing the right clothes &
attitude I want to project.
…if you are
gonna wear “it” and put “it” out
there (it = SEX…oh yes it does..lol) …wear
it with confidence! Own it chick! …a confident woman doesn’t need to dress like a hooker……sometimes it fun
to trash it up a bit….sexy is about an attitude…how you carry yourself…the look
on your face….the ease & desire that radiates from your body…. We all have
our own style of dressing sexy….don’t ever let yourself be persuaded to dress
in a way that makes your feel unnatural…awkward or overexposed…….it’s cool to
step out of your box every now & then but I try to be aware of my limits…the few limits I have……I “try”
to wear outfits that suit my style..my body & my perception of myself….
….a few
month ago..not knowing where the hell my head was…went out sporting this red monstrosity
of an outfit…..it was sexy..but NOT on me…..I knew walking out of the house
this was not my style nor did I feel the sexy attitude that goes with a red
corset…red thigh high fishnets…..you get the picture – NOT GOOD! ..I do have to admit the corset did shift the
sand in my hourglass shape to give the illusion of a cur-vicious well stacked
body….lol…what the hell was I thinking? …I
guess I wasn’t….lol …sad…sad…sad…
..whatever
you decide to wear….red 4 inch F*#@ pumps….or white cotton granny panties…..you
are as sexy as you feel…put yourself in the mood…give your body some attention…..love
it…show it off…flaunt it…for yourself..for your man…or men…wink wink..nod nod….the
thrill you get from dressing sexy by your terms….You Go Girl! You get your sexy
on!
“A friend is one that knows you as you are, understands where you have been, accepts what you have become, and still, gently allows you to grow.” ~William Shakespeare
…Lucy & Ethel…….Mary & Rhoda…Laverne
& Shirley…..
..real or not the friendship between these chicks
has always had a uniquely powerful impact on me…to have such a bond…an
everlasting friendship…these female friends share a commitment throughout their
lifetime…they share experiences & love each other no matter what stupid….idiotic…exciting…wonderful..drunken
thing they may do….
..I have been blessed to have a wonderful..long
term friendship…..my gal pal & I have weathered the storm of peer pressure…boyfriends….parents….marriage..kids..grandkids…and
now menopause. We are our true selves
when we chat with one and other…whether we are good..bad…rich..poor…sick or well….we
are just a phone call away….we can talk without missing a beat..we pick up
where we last left off. We cheer each
other on…we bitch slap each other when needed…she grounds m in who I am….where
I came from….she is ALWAYS with me in spirit…she is part of who I am.
…life has a way of getting in the way of
friendship…at least for me….I get so busy doing my thing…I forget to call or
text..or even stick something in the mail…..alot…but in no way shape or form
does that mean you are not on my mind & in my heart. …you know who you are….. thank you for YOU!

..,..living "Your Truth"
~Living my
truth means knowing my vision and allowing that to be my life; actively letting
go of what other’s want from you and listening to my ‘inner voice’…knowing what I am & am not responsible for; not doing anything that
doesn’t fit your vision for yourself.
…my truth
…..am I living my truth……I
honestly don’t know if I am…..I need to define what my true is exactly….the
truth about me…my life….my potential & capabilities & desires…my wants & needs….there comes a point in our lives when we need…ok maybe
feel the need to stand at every crossroads of every aspects our life &
decide what is our
truth about each one…being brave enough to explore the
truth..good..bad or otherwise takes courage..ya have open to the possibility
that you may have to disprove everything that you ever believed to be true
about ourselves, our lives & others.
…what we know about ourselves & our world is a combo of our own experiences….what is it they say…..we are the sum of the whole…I am not sure if that applies here..sounds good..lol We do know ourselves through our own knowledge and what others have taught us….just when we get to that point when we need to realize our own truth & decide to explore our truth changed & we have to create a new level of truth.
….without knowing our truth ..how can we
match our energy to any intention that is higher than what we believe our truth
to be…kinda like if you wanna hold the
truth that you are powerful & successful then you have to hold the energetic
vibration that corresponds with that level truth…kinda like…ya need to walk
your talk……if not….you can hold the intention..but sadly it will never be your
truth.
..setting
parameters of your truth can mean releasing connections to everyone that doesn’t
match……believing we are deserving of love, respect..compassion means dumping
all connections to people…events..situations that we are not loved or treated
in a manner that matched our truth…it take much courage to let go of the familiar….comfy….easy in our lives…..letting go is hard…..even if
you know you are creating space for new situations & new connections that enhance and feed
your truth….its still hard….I have always heard when there is pain there is
growth….
…it’s easy
to follow along with the status quo….but changing our truth….adopting a new
truth or asserting our truth gives us the power & confidence to create the
life we want..a life that reflects the truth we want to know..share & live
through…….I am doing just that….I find myself standing at many crossroads…working
to discover MY TRUTH…..and doing my best to surround myself with only those who
support & enhance MY TRUTH…..I have seen
a glimpse of MY TRUTH……..I am a work in progress…
Do you live
your truth?
