Trouble

Yes, I tried it, and guess what?

the Story Reading Ape Blog noticed it too.

Gremlins in the system.

And you got two posts about the same thing, so here is something different, and it won’t be reblogged, but if there’s anyone who wants to FB the Smorgasbord post, or this one, be my guest.

I knew I was a storyteller ….

When I was a child

A very young child

I had many siblings

Some were afraid of the dark

Some liked to listen to the dreams of far, far away

All liked to know

Someone was there

To make the darkness into light

Make the monsters be friendly

Give them dreams of a tomorrow

Where they could be wise

Or wealthy

Or famous

I would tell them the stories

Make them up

Take other people’s stories

Make them our own

Whisper them quietly

Speak them loudly

Sing them badly

I did not write these stories down

But I was the storyteller

And they will all tell you

The story

Of their own word weaver.

And I hope the reblog feature returns one day … soon.
