Dale offers the prompt, “seeds, fruits and nuts” for this week’s Cosmic Photo Challenge.
I considered going to the grocery store to find these.
Instead, I searched through my photos. Here are some fruits.
I am thankful to the Lord for everything mentioned below and all of His other blessings.
The photos tell their tales with the help of captions.
I went back to the Six Sentence Cafe & Bistro and found the tall, thin man setting the automaton up in the foyer as Doctor Zoltan Mystic and Seer who apparently could answer any question for 25 cents though he specialized in fortunes.
Finding a quarter in my pocket, I asked Zoltan, “What does a poem consist of?” and Zoltan raised up a card upon which I read: RHYME, METER AND HEART, BUT YOU BETTER USE THE PROMPT WORD FOIL SOMEWHERE IN THIS TALL TALE OF YOURS BEFORE YOU RUN OUT OF SENTENCES.
Wow, I thought, that was a more accurate answer than AI would have given me.
Perhaps reading my mind Zoltan gratuitously raised up another card upon which I read: I CAN EVEN WRITE THAT POEM FOR YOU AND FAKE THE HEART JUST LIKE YOU WOULD.
Wondering now if he was any better than AI, I inserted another quarter to ask him if he ever ran out of cardboard stock upon which he wrote those messages.
Up popped another card which read: HOW WOULD I KNOW?

So which is it?
Jeff was prepared to argue that he had been as good as the next guy ever could have been to foil any attempt to send him to that other place. After reading the details of the judgment the gent turned to Jeff with a welcoming smile.
It says right here that you have been assigned a room in a decent-enough-for-you mansion to be shared with all your exes and their exes and their exes’ exes and those exes’ exes’ exes and so on, so you tell me where you are.

Where should I go this week? Miami Beach is about 7 miles long with a north, mid and south beach. South Beach is the most famous.
When we are in the area we stay in the north beach area, but we will use bicycles or the trolley to go to the south, park them and then walk around one step at a time.

Dale offers the prompt “foliage” for this week’s Cosmic Photo Challenge.
He adds, “let’s capture some greenery up close, before the changing colours of autumn are upon us”.
Here are some of my captures.
The theme this week is what is on the second shelf far right of one’s bookshelf. I have three actual bookshelves, but one huge bookshelf in the garage made of wooden boxes.
I am thankful to the Lord for everything mentioned below and all of His other blessings.
Oh, there once was some nothing that said,
“I am nothing, just something you’ve read
or you’ve heard. That is all
and my tales are tall,
but with nothing your minds have been fed.”
