Let’s start out the year unconventially … I had many New-Year-ish contenders but the winner is … “Bloody Mary”.
Whether it is the
Legend of Bloody Mary
drink, a Mary that is bloody, The Mary that is bloody, “Bloody Mary, Bloody Mary or another interpretation. Follow it.
And a little googling shows it is National Bloody Mary Day (Thank you, National Day Calendar) … so not as random as I thought it would be (Great minds think alike). Turns out that Bloody Mary’s were once used as a hangover cure – and can be again. For those who celebrated too much last night – You’re Welcome
Happy New Year, My Friend! May all your goals become realities & your w!orries never materalize!
I identify myself as a Pacific Northwest poet. I have been writing poetry since 1976- and yes - I have been using the pen-name Ariel all this time! I can often be found writing in the Willamette Valley, in Pacific forests or along the Coastlines on Oregon.
