3 Days to go, MYM KNOCKING ON DOOR

What was the Dutch mixologist, Ana Gram, famous for?
DAME MADE EDAM MEAD!

The good news is that sunrises are getting later again this year in November (as seen in the headline screenshot from timeanddate), so mistYmuse (most ideal sunrise times – midwinter until spring equinox) 20/21 is ON!

No travelling, No effort!
More sleep (potentially?)
Later sunrises (weather permitting!)
More mYmories (memories): certainly.

For non-Americans/Thanksgivingers it’s a Thanksgiving replacement and for American Thanksgivingers it’s a warm-up and follow-up, as the mistYmuse party continues until spring!

Winter watching what wild wings
saw on horizon, perched in trees
b4 deciduous leaves decided to leave
following feathered friends.

if you’re going to buy any fantasy fiction books this year, I recommend this one; with free comedy and poetry; and free of fake wokery pokery!:

3 x 3 Anagram Philosophy: Further Research

After the TEA-EAT-ATE anagram box:

TEA
EAT
ATE

I thought the related POT (teapot) might work as well, with OPT and TOP other words from those letters, but doesn’t work three-ways; only working two-ways from any combination:

Starting with TOP and OPT leaves PTO at the end; it is an acronym for Please Turn Over, but not a word:

TOP
OPT
PTO

Starting with OPT and POT leaves TTO:

OPT
POT
TTO

Starting with POT and OPT also leaves TTO

POT
OPT
TTO

I guess a word with two vowels might be needed. Do you know any others that work?

They must be mad, but they’ve given the blog over to their favourite mixed-up vole for Valentine’s Day… only at the Greenygrey!

Rainbow Roy G Biv Anagram Reflections Mirror Poem

Image via Wikipedia

This poem was inspired by Marc Latham’s mind time in the Rainbow Valley; in Australia’s Northern Territory on the border with South Australia.  That was while writing up the Werewolf of Oz.

Marc Latham was just going to scoot through at first, but then got caught up in the valley, and found out a bit about rainbows while there.

When he realised that green was in the middle of the seven colour Newtonian rainbow spectrum (there are other theories too) and there was an anagram of ROY G BIV to remember it he thought it fitted nicely into the Folding Mirror format.

What follows is not the greatest poetic opus ever, or probably even ever by Marc Latham, but he quite enjoys its aesthetics, and hopes you do too. 

He also hopes it’ll help him and you remember the formation; unless you already know ROY well of course.

Here’s the piece:
