THEME THURSDAY

A NEW BEGINNING
(An Acrostic)
After all the grief and woe,
*
Nastiness is done.
Every cloud is white as snow;
We can see the sun.
*
Before, we two were blind as bats,
Eager for dispute.
Gone are all those tit-for-tats;
Ill-will doesn't suit.
Never more will we complain!
Next comes a new beginning!
I'm in love with you again;
Now true love is winning.
Girl meets boy a second time!
*
(This is a very hopeful rhyme!)

JELLOW!
Jelly Fungi! New to me!
In the trunk of a woody tree!
White or orange, pink or rose,
Or yellow as this picture shows!
'Witch's Butter' these are named,
Edible, or so it's claimed.
Eaten raw they are quite munchy,
Partly slippery, partly crunchy!
Tasting like soil..... I kid you not!
Soil just out of your garden plot!
Sometimes they seem to mimic coral,
Which seems to me a bit immoral!
Slippery! Crunchy! Tasting of earth!
Are they really of any worth?
I'd have to be close to starvation
To get the slightest inclination
To toss one back and gulp it down!
I prefer my mushrooms a normal brown!
