Interesting post !! lovely rumors π

If it made you smile then you blessed me. Thank you so much Nimue π

Too cool!I suppose one of the rumors around my part of the globe is presented by a Creationist museum just up the road: the Earth is only 6,000 years old and dinosaurs are just a scientific conspiracy against the concept of God
04/28/2011 at 7:59 AM
Some minds are still so young…when it mature realization will settle in. Blessings to you π
04/26/2011 at 9:09 PM
Very clever and fun! The Mona Lisa and Van Gogh ones are my favorites. π
04/27/2011 at 12:05 AM
Thank you! Could Da Vinci and Van Gogh secretly dreamed of being a woman?
Oops please don’t spread that rumor π
04/26/2011 at 12:56 PM
This is fun. Thank you! Needed a smile. Like Marilyn best … but they’re call clever.
04/26/2011 at 11:57 PM
Thank you for that smile! As if Marilyn isn’t controversial enough π
04/26/2011 at 12:20 PM
You certainly add an interesting bend to the world. Great fun!
04/26/2011 at 11:55 PM
Thank you! Could that be the reason why the world isn’t flat — because there’s a bend in it? lol π
04/26/2011 at 7:11 AM
Lovely artsy piece – delivering the voice of the original poets. Keep it up!
04/26/2011 at 11:49 PM
And if they could speak…
Marilyn — “I clipped it already, Okay?”
Da Vinci — “You made me smile!”
Van Gogh — “Shoe many speculations!”
Da Vinci — “Next time accept the supper invitation!”
Thank you and blessings to you! π
04/26/2011 at 5:26 AM
a lot different than other poems – perhaps thats the reason why I reall ydig it π
04/26/2011 at 11:37 PM
You confirmed my suspicion that I am different. lol.
Thank you and blessings to you π
04/26/2011 at 5:22 AM
These are so darn fun and clever!!
04/26/2011 at 11:32 PM
Thank you! I had fun too posting and running after I hit publish π
04/26/2011 at 5:06 AM
Mary Magdalene
She was in The Last Supper?
John where are you then
Loved this one very much π Good question!
04/26/2011 at 11:30 PM
It’s hard to look for someone whom we intentionally miss.
Blessings to you Blaga π
04/26/2011 at 4:30 AM
Such fun to read! Very clever.
04/26/2011 at 11:22 PM
Thank you! Have more fun π

Cute take on fact or fiction poetry. Interesting and unique. I give you 6 toes up!!
04/26/2011 at 11:17 PM
harhar! Thanks for the 6 toes up! Blessings to you π
04/25/2011 at 11:38 PM
This was a whole different approach but I love it.
04/26/2011 at 11:15 PM
Thank you. Simple offering from a simple mind π
04/25/2011 at 11:18 PM
These are so fun. I’ve heard all of these except about Marilyn and we had the Warhols at the museum where I’m a docent. Wish I’d known that one!
04/26/2011 at 11:14 PM
It must be fun looking at the faces of the visitors — “Really? Six toes!”
My respect, docent π
04/25/2011 at 10:08 PM
A fun series!
04/26/2011 at 11:12 PM
Glad you had fun! Enjoy the truth in your life π
04/25/2011 at 9:59 PM
speculative believe is a problem all art lovers must address- great message bended.. my potluck.. http://fiveloaf.wordpress.com/2010/02/13/a-chinese-love-story/
04/26/2011 at 11:10 PM
Thank you. Speculations made me wonder — are we getting nearer or farther from the truth? π
04/25/2011 at 5:21 PM
Thank you, Princess π
Rumours? I have none … but I have a truth π
Christ the Lord is risen indeed!! May you experience the joys of Easter over and over again.
Blessings,
ann
04/25/2011 at 8:52 PM
Oh yes, He is risen! Thank you so much Ann. I have experienced Easter a number of times in my life — good to be back from death :)Huggs and blessings to you.
04/25/2011 at 4:43 PM
Spoon I like. like . like a lot…:-)
04/25/2011 at 8:46 PM
Thank you. Thank you Sam π
04/25/2011 at 4:13 PM
Very interesting approach to art! The six toes is new to me…
04/25/2011 at 4:39 PM
The rumor started with Joseph Jasgur’s line, “Norma Jeane had six toes and I can prove it with this picture on pages 72 and 73” in his book “The Birth of Marilyn: The Lost Photographs of Norma Jeane”. He had a shot of Norma Jeane (before she became Manilyn Monroe)in a California beach wherein she seemed to have 6 toes due to a clump of sand in her foot. The funny thing is he has other photos in the same book with only 5 toes.
5 or 6 toes — she isn’t Manilyn Monroe because of her toes!
Enjoy the day with your lovely toes π
04/25/2011 at 4:02 PM
Oh Rea Sonshine! Your U poems are unique and ubiquitous. Okay, that might not make sense, but I was trying to use u words in my comment. ugh. ha!
God bless U and yours, now and always! You are doing great!
04/25/2011 at 4:20 PM
ahaha! God bless U is more than enough for me.
Love and hugggs to you Deb π
04/25/2011 at 3:53 PM
okay! This one again is splendidly done!!
I loved the observations and the stories spun around those.. π
Very well done.. π
Hugs xox
04/25/2011 at 4:17 PM
Thank you Olivia! How far are we going to dig deeper? If ever we get to the end, how can these change lives for the better? So serious, lol!
Have a fantastic day π
04/25/2011 at 2:04 PM
Hi Bended, great work. Maybe John was in reality a woman? Hm. Or he had the day off? π
04/25/2011 at 4:03 PM
John is actually in The Last Supper as he is one of the 12 disciples — Mark 14:12-26.
No day off for that wonderful man! π
I am only trying to say that if somebody refute something he better have all the bases covered and not raise more questions.
Peace and blessings to you π
04/25/2011 at 12:41 PM
These were wonderfully written, spoon! π Haiku gossip, who’da thunk?
04/25/2011 at 1:20 PM
Me, who can’t come up with anything substantial. lol. Huggs and blessings to you π
04/25/2011 at 11:04 AM
Fun idea! Especially love the last one.
04/25/2011 at 1:17 PM
‘Where is John?’ Is a more interesting question for me. Enjoy the day! π
04/25/2011 at 10:21 AM
Awesome work here, especially enjoyed the one about Vincent :)Thank you for sharing.
04/25/2011 at 1:14 PM
Thank you. Interesting claims on that shoes… Enjoy the day, shoeless — it feels good to feel the earth sometimes without shoes π
04/25/2011 at 10:17 AM
fantastic..
A++
π
04/25/2011 at 12:55 PM
Thank you π
04/25/2011 at 10:11 AM
So creative!
04/25/2011 at 12:53 PM
Thank you! That’s all I can offer for the theme. Blessings to you π
04/25/2011 at 9:43 AM
wow! awesome, fun and now work to discover if they are rumors or not π enjoy the rally!

04/25/2011 at 12:51 PM
Glad you had fun! It won’t make a difference (for me) if there’s truth in it — Mona Lisa will still have the same smile. Enjoy your day! π
04/25/2011 at 9:41 AM
ishoe? Brillant!
04/25/2011 at 10:10 AM
I second that!
04/25/2011 at 12:48 PM
If it didn’t matter to her shoe, why should it matter to us? lol.
Have a fantastic day! π
04/25/2011 at 9:17 AM
I hope you had a very Happy Easter! π Time sure flies…”T” already! π
04/25/2011 at 12:43 PM
Yup Happy Easter!
Good that T flies so I’ll have my Zzzz π
04/25/2011 at 6:33 AM
How are U so creative? I so look forward to your thoughts and musings and ponderings! π
04/25/2011 at 12:38 PM
It ends this way for somebody who can’t come up with a soulful poem! To think it’s a dream theme for real poets.
Huggs and blessings to you Colleen π
04/25/2011 at 2:18 AM
You calling me? Mary Magdalene is my baptised name.. So, hmm, as usual, I can’t help but you know, flow into your poem… *hehehhe*,
I like the last one best.. It is just so playful yet that’s what many claimed.. *HUG*
A great write for U…
04/25/2011 at 12:35 PM
ahaha! You’re in — 2 letters in a row!
Now tell me, were you there? π
04/25/2011 at 12:14 AM
First of all I can’t believe U are already at U although I should have suspected when the last letter was T! Wish I could remember some rumours..will have to wait for the thoughts!
04/25/2011 at 12:33 PM
ahaha! no T, no T U! Please feel free to share π
