~ * ~ A celebrated reader of "The Fabled & Jaded Eye," an exuberant, if exaggerated, even at times, exasperating, if exacting and unabashedly inspirational, fictional work of St. Silverear, was seized by an impulse to accelerate her coursework for her Induction into The Order. For that reason, reversing her frown, she put down the book, but not before, with fastidious consideration to detail, a trait for which she was well known, indeed, oft admired, if at times scorned by less exacting, if those prone to envy, individuals, placing her green felt Book Worm bookmark between page 96 and page 97. Acacia, as if a plotting ghost, inaudibly closed her book. Situated farther east, our afternoon party, in proper accord, journeyed out into the open air, recognizing a robust craving for a spot of fresh air, as well, a bit of thriving shrubbery. Spotting a spinning ensemble of stripes, we quickly dove out of an oncoming rush of a pair of zebras. In due time, our party gainfully sought respite at a quiet drinking place, none too far from a Shoppe proffering, in their artfully-lit, easternmost side street window, five packages of exceptionally high-quality sheep flax, artfully arranged, indeed, composing a rather handsome mise-en-scene, in tandem with a pair of Brillo boxes and Campbell's Tomato Soup. One pillow of flax cradled a brilliant pear-shaped diamond ring, Tiffany set among platinum prongs, an elegant armature, indeed. Ebenezer, seized by a fit of exuberant generosity, suddenly put out of bag of Academia Notes for Too Aardvarks, merely for their amusement and intellectual entertainment, who, we all agreed, appeared a tad overly tranquil, particularly, considering the time of day. Meanwhile, Merrylegs munched on kumquats, and extolled methodically the virtues of this particular exotic fruit's voraciously juicy bounce. I, on the other hand, feeling rather claustrophobic, found myself forced to zigzag and tremble furiously around a scenic scenario of large xylophones, confused by their chimes, as, just a stone's throw away, chimed the Market Square Glockenspiel. Gusts of wind crooned the crosswalk. A newspaper headline, quavered in the wind, embraced a corner lamp post, with a jittery nervousness that pained my heart, resisting and pleading against flight further north. Sympathetically, I stood in front of the lamp post and read the latest news from abroad ~ 'In Boston, The Toy Coulis of Jazzy & Snazzy (mildly malevolent twins) Bursts, Finishing the Lives of Two Talented but Overly Theatrical Children.' My watch chime rang the hour, reminding me, once again, the hour for Finishing School was upon us. Sadly, I turned, brushed back a tear, walked away. Twittering and I once lived in Boston. ~ * ~
