Friday Photo Fun: Nature

Friday Photo Fun is when I share a randomly captured moment,

or perhaps a photo experiment with more purposeful intent,

then pair it with a rhyming riddle to exercise your mind

and teach you more weird facts to which you once were blind

It's cold looking but also beautiful,

sometimes said to be too plentiful,

brought from South Africa to stabilize

U.S. beachfront railroad ties.

So, what is this thing I shot in nature?

I await your guesses... catch you later!

Friday Photo Fun was inspired by This Moment,
a tradition begun by
SJ of Samuel Michaels Photography and
Alejandro of Raising Amelie and Blognostics.

Wacky Word Wednesday: Addlepated

Addlepated

Lately I've felt a bit addlepated,

A bit confused and sedated,

Like my mind may have faded,

Clarity downgraded,

Addlepated.

Wacky Word Wednesday - Mickle

Mickle

Mickle rhymes with but is not like a pickle,

But could describe a big pile of nickles,

Or perhaps a gigantic pot of pickles,

Because a lot of something is called a mickle.

Every week I rhyme and define a new wacky word.
Come on over to indulge your inner nerd.
And, please let me know of any weird words you've heard.
