She was on her way to Teagan’s Christmas in July blog party, in a beautiful new gown. Blinded by the light, she accidentally turned left into a mural. Ecila looked around at the black and white world, and saw no way out.
Suddenly there was a black and white cat looming before her. “Who are you?” she asked.
“Why I’m Tac Tac the Water Cat,” he replied, “and you can’t get out the way you came in. You’ll have to go through the Purple Pink Rabbits’ door, in the pink alley.”
“Take this!” said Tac Tac, and he handed Ecila a gold rabbit coin. “Use it wisely. It’s your one chance to get out of here.”
Ecila wandered black and white curves until she saw a pink alley. In the alley was a Purple Pink Rabbit. “Hello! What’s your name, and can you please show me the door out of here?”
“I’m Tibbar,” the rabbit replied, “and yes, the door is at the top of the stairs.”
Ecila looked up some stairs guarded by three Purple Pink Rabbits. The door was there!
“But first you’ll have to get past Bugsy, Mugsy and Thugsy. Bugsy and Mugsy charge 5 gold rabbit coins each. Thugsy gets seven.”
“But I have only one gold rabbit coin,” Ecila said looking up at Bugsy.
“Not my problem,” replied Bugsy.
“There’s only one way to make gold rabbit coins here,” offered Mugsy. “You’ll have to play poker with the dogs! The game’s around the corner on an old red wood sliding door.”
Ecila found the dog’s game, draped her tail up to look like a gambler’s cape and threw her gold rabbit coin on the table.
“Chips please!” she demanded cooly.
The dogs howled. They figured she was just a human, and they would relieve her of her gold rabbit coin faster than the first day of winter. A chick in a bolero hat put a small stack of chips on the table for her.
Ecila thought of the wise words from her non uncle Kenny.
After many hours of holding, folding and not counting her chips, Ecila cashed in for 17 gold rabbit coins. She left the extra chips on the table, let down her tail and walked away.
Once out of sight of the dogs, she began running to the Purple Pink Rabbits’ door.
Ecila ran up the stairs tossing gold coins to the rabbits.
She threw the last 7 coins to Thugsy, and fled out the door. Elica ran all the way toTeagan’s blog hop party, where she made a grand entrance in her new Winter Solstice gown.
“Sorry I’m late everyone! My hair is mess and well, I can’t even begin to tell you what I’ve been through,” Ecila lightly panted. “Let me just say some cats are water cats, there’s such a thing as Purple Pink Rabbits and the the dog days of summer really are dog days.”

This is a post about Peace, Love, Smiles & a song Trent wrote & recorded..
It began with the John Lennon post I recently did. Trent had selected a Lennon song for the event.
Then it grew into a song and video written and produced by Trent.
The lyrics are poetic, and hold a message inspired by John.
V1 I thought I saw Lennon’s face From a trolley rocketing by It disappeared without a trace Did the vision also die?
His words come tumbling back From a far off distant land A great message on each track A utopian dream so grand
V2 I read the news today (oh boys) Children-human shields were killed Drones and bombs made some noise More innocent blood was spilled
Why is making war so appealing? Why is love considered quaint? I think our attitude is revealing Our devotion to guns a taint
Chorus
So let’s all join in Sing of peace and love again For we all belong In a Lennon written song It can’t be wrong So sing along Let us all join in All join in
Bridge
Such an imagination! He made us dream The world stood as one Our actions could redeem
Can we remember Perhaps even enhance And once again Give peace a chance?
V3 Today people gave power to the rich A billionaire grabbed more We’re told advancing is a cinch Just give the billionaires more
John trusted the People’s voice Today that seems absurd I think that we have no choice But to make our voices heard
(Chorus)
V4 I found the face in a doorway Faded into nostalgic hues The simple picture’s seen better days Reflecting Lennon’s views
Although the decades whizzed past Never believe that it is too late John’s message will always last Hold my hand, let’s temp fate
(Chorus) (Chorus) (Chorus)
Once a week there is usually a Weekly Smile post on Trent’s Blog, He tells about something that made him smile. He asks what made you smile.
This week I’m smiling because a street art post of mine, inspired a beautiful song about “give peace a chance” to be written & video to be made.
