Do I only whine?

Something which has intruded into my writes.

  Feeling sorry for myself.

This is another example.

The thing is I can move beyond.

Actually write some stuff.

Let me play with the words.

Tortoise and the purple gorilla watch the sun rise west of the Monterey beach.

We smile at each other,

 feeling a touch of nonsense.

Collection of flutterbys fly by,

 and maybe a few pixies.

Mystery machine is parked in the lot.

 Might need a jump start.

A Coyote sits with jacob,

 and write words of romance.

Barleygirl tempts me with an inn along the coast.

I could continue,

 but then I couldn't complain.

I feel honored to be amongst the vermin sprinkled into your story for ambiance! *wink! wink!* I can tell you are still dreaming of eating breakfast on the back patio at River Inn. Did you see the picture I posted with the Adirondack chairs in the Big Sur river? I love your poem & I love how easily you reveal your weirdnesses & weaknesses! (((HUGS))) Fondly, Margie

The picture added to the temptation. Always looking for a new place where I can enjoy a meal. Coyote mentioned it as well. Showing yourself is hard for some, but easier than trying to hide! A gentle hug back! Jon

The end made me laugh. In my head I heard a voice ask me if im feeling okay, in a slightly worried tone, only for me to reply "No! Ive got nothing to mosn about." :)
This piece, in mine humble opinion, is as original as they come. I'm not saying it's never happened before, but I certainly havent read many pieces depicting purple gorillas :)

[Jon Roggie]

I may have mentioned a gorilla before. Car wreck may have added a bit of a different tone. Amazing where you find inspiration!

S**t, man, ye got nothin' to complain of now!!!! Let's see, ya got a tortoise and a purple gorilla smilin' at ya, ya got nonsense--some of us got just THAT one! Ya got flutterbys and pixies--might be part of the next Scooby-Doo adventure, ya got a poetry writin' coyote, Jacob, and maybe a room at an inn with Barleygirl.
Shame on ya man, for even thinkin' o' wantin' more!
Yer RICH!

A tortoise slowly winks.

Also, the menu looks good.

[Jon Roggie]

Forget it. I hate going out for breakfast. I get to cook.

[angel]

Blueberry pancakes and sausage?

[Jon Roggie]

That sounds good. I need to pick up a waffle maker. I could go for some chicken and waffles. Something about the mix of salty and sweet. Plus, I am willing to cook either one no matter the time of day!

I am just smiling. :)
There's a sweet charm to your words.

[Jon Roggie]

Spotted two errors.
I left you out,
and of should be off.

[Jon Roggie]

Besides that, It is fun telling stories.

[Papaya]

Well I was taking one of my breaks so it's no big deal and I hadn't noticed the other error. And I just read it again.

[Jon Roggie]

Quick question. What would be in the Garden?

[Jon Roggie]

Should be you. I chose tortoise.

[Papaya]

Tulips and toads :)
