In the Sun
By Ann Chiappetta
Bandana the cat dozes
A ginger tabby
lazes in the pumpkin patch
Hooded candy corn yellow eyes
the sphinx
basking in the warm praise of Ra.

Sunday’s Kitten
By Ann Chiappetta
Not yet
A prim princess
rescued from Kittenish
misadventures, undaunted
black fur
feather
duster tail, lithe
ferrets in and out of
indoor playground until she finds
the sun.
2021
black kitten Luna with new pink and white collar sitting on her cat tree. The charm hangs from the collar and is a crescent moon with a cat on it.

♓ ✨ 🔯
I read my daily horoscope. It waits in my inbox until the right time. Sometimes it is a day late, providing insights into things that already happened, other days it’s right on the money. Today is an accurate horoscope day.
Since semi-retiring at age fifty-something, I’ve picked up a few contract jobs but none in the field where my true passion lay: writing and creating content for blogging and podcasts. I am hoping my horoscope and a new opportunity will assist me in shifting focus and a new adventure will include my passion with a salary, too.
I’m on a grand adventure
Full of words and sounds
Together Heart and mind smile

Why I Like the Word Tweak
Hey there readers-
I left you all in limbo with a post stating I was moving my blog over to my website www.annchiappetta.com and I am happy to announce it is now completed. This is what I refer to as a tweak. As an informal verb definition, among other terms, it means to make an improvement to a system. Thank-you Siri, for the information. 😊 You all will still receive the blog updates, too.
Stay tuned for more now that thought-wheel has settled into it’s new home on the interwebs. 💻
And, as the announcer once said on the old-fashioned TV broadcasts, “and now back to the show.” 📺
