Thoroughly Poetic Pictorial Thankful Thursday

Today I am very thankful for Brian's 
Thankful Thursday Hop



We had lunch with SIL and BIL on January 31, 2019.
SIL made me an apple pie for my Birthday.
We don't exchange b-day gifts...she makes us pies because she is queen of pies
and I make them cornbread because I'm queen of cornbread
YES IT WAS DELICIOUS!!!



Today we join Two  SPOILED CATS 
Angel Sammy and Teddy for their poetic pictorial poem.

Here is today's pictorial inspiration



Plunge
by cecilia
He sprung from the ledge bird like
Into the liquid ABYSS
Was his landing a 10 or a MISS?




In 2017 Madi wrote an
Ode to her water fountain....


Oh water fountain how I do love you...
Your water glistens in the night even when there is no light,
Your pump sends sweet, fresh water down to the bowl much to my delight...
The water trickles, ripples and bubbles
enticing my inner beastie...
It makes me dream of lovely places to feast.
Oh water fountain thank you for service to me through out the day and night.

  4. You are very lucky to have a sis-in-law that makes delicious pie! I am hoping that guy landed a 10! Sweet Madi and her water fountain ♥

  5. That is a scary looking dive. Looks like a long ways down. That poem is just the best. And the pie made me very hungry for pie. You all have a first class day.

  6. Oh my - both of those poems are wonderful....Angel Madi was a master of the word and I guess she got THAT from her Mom who is the Queen of Cornbread!

  8. I remember the ode to the water fountain. and the poem for the DIVE is my favorite you have written so far. short, to the point, perfect for the photo. love it.... if given a choice of apple pie or cornbread I would dive on the cornbread. if it were a lemon, or pecan or custard pie, I would dive on the pie. I am the queen of eating what others bake

  12. Takes a special kind of person to want to dive off heights like that! Angel Madi, will you convince The Hubby that we need a cat water fountain...he thinks everything around it will get wet! I remember enjoying a pear pie that my SIL made, a bazillion years ago. Pears from her tree.

  14. Okay, now I'm hungry for apple pie.

    Love your poem and I'll give that guy a 10.

    Our cruise is on our boat and we'll leave our marina tomorrow morning and cruise to Marina West Yacht Club for the weekend. Then on Sunday we will cruise back to our marina. It's going to rain all three days. We're going anyway.

    Have a fabulous Thankful Thursday, my friend. Big hug. ♥

  17. Oooooo, yum! We think a bit of ice cream would have made that pie absolutely PERFECT.

  18. I hope it was a 10 and not a miss. We have seen the cliff divers in Acapulco and it was scary to watch!
    The apple pie looks delicious.

  20. Mom can make a pretty darn good apple pie too. She makes her own crust. Dad loves it, but he loves it too much:) We sure hope that dive was a 10+++ and not a miss -oops!

  21. Ghostwriter says there is NO WAY she would jump from a cliff like that! She's scared of heights. Apple pie sounds like the perfect thing for a birthday. And, if I had a waterfall like that, I think I'd be playing in it all day long! Hooray!
