TEA
TIME (4:00 PM Pacific) Buffy-versification/discussion
intra-Bronze links
|
For those who missed it, California
and stolen tea time from the Brits
...

For those who missed the commotion,
here's the
discussion where we discovered that
the Brits don't
care about tea time
anymore, so we Yanks
have claimed it for
ourselves.
<smile>
http://www.buffy.com/bronze_posts.jsp?tid=47101
And
now that we've got tea time settled as
4
PM Santa Monica/Los Angeles time . . .
here's
the link to today's Buffy sonnet
...
(yea, yea, we're stealing the Bard's form,
too)
http://www.buffy.com/bronze_posts.jsp?tid=47071
Which
is about Riley, Sam, Growing Up, Season 6 yada
yada yada
AND FOR "LATECOMERS" to
sonnetizing the Buffyverse
here's a link to
yesterday's
sonnet:
http://www.buffy.com/bronze_posts.jsp?tid=46649
Perhaps
the Bronze will one day set up a
simpler
intra-Bronze link command, but this is
all that's
possible now.
I'll be
hanging around during Tea Time (4-5 PM Pacific) .
. .
you
speak

Make sure you
pronounce it correctly. The British fans are quite
particular about that. Ta Ta!

Thanks to all for dropping by to
celebrate "Tea Time" liberation from those wicked Brits

Much applause to prunehilda
for venturing her (quite perceptive,
future-wise)
poetic response to sonnet #2. (How many
the Shakespeare do? 154?)
Thanks to all who've
refrained from saying "You're poetry sucks"
and
"that's not poetry" etc. <smile>
Forgive me
my lack of lightfooted grace on this first linking
excursion....
...and I see it's 5:00 PM, so
I'll go poof quite soon ...

My beach experience is very
limited

(I don't like water
with THINGS in it). So I don't know what constitutes
beach food. I suppose chocolate is out? Too messy? Maybe
brownies would be ok.They can be put in sand-proof bags
and I don't think they are British.

How about chicken
salad?
It's not British but it's very
good!

And I have not
experienced The Big Easy,
but did drive through the
bayou one midnight ...
... on my way to L.A.
<smile>
One pleasure of L.A. . .
.
... is crossing paths with Spike at the grocery
store.
(after Midnight, of course).

Excuse my hesitant

universes
. . . the present and the past <smile> figuring
out
this linking experiment.
Still recovering
from having stolen tea time from the Brits.

Lovely sonnets.
Absolutely lovely. You have an inspired command of the
form.

|

iced or hot tea? hmmm, a profound
decision . . . (thinking)

By the way, did you
see prunehilda's rhyming couplets
response to my Riley
and Sam sonnet?
I'll copy her poetry here, in
case it's too hard to link to
A Stab
At Poetry
Posted by: prunehilda - Mar 20, 2002, 4:35

Here's a little dittie:
In
five years time
On a night sublime
Sam will
awake
And wish she could forsake
This life of
demon fighting
Under really lousy lighting
Black
Kevlar has lost it's appeal
She needs to know when's
her next meal
A bath, a home, a kidlet or
two
These are the things that she'll want to
do
"You've changed" he'll snort
"You haven't"
she'll retort
And exposed will be the ups and
downs
Of which Riley spoke, so profound

California tea-time

Would mean iced tea,
rather than hot tea, correct? I wouldn't want to make an
etiquette mistake.
|
|
|
yes, that topic sentence made no sense.
