1. This guy's the one we must go to When we are unsure what to do, His gender's not clear But from him you will hear What's allowed, and what is taboo. 2. This lady lives with her brother, From her posts you will discover That she has strong bonds With her sweet dachshunds, And Bella and Daisy just love her. 3. California is where she is from Loves music, and has a green thumb, Her baby bird died, Oh how she cried, As attached to it she'd become. 4. She does the massage from Thailand, And spent time living in Ireland, Now in Deutschland lives she, Though her heart seems to be In Philippines - her native land. 5. An ex-Airforce man, he's like wine The older he gets the more fine, He tells us tall stories Of scenes from past glories, Makes us laugh with his witty rhyme. 1.GoAskAlice. 2.Simone10. 3.@norcal. 4.thelme55. 5.Ceerios If you want to see the others in this series please click on the tag 'Miscellaneous MyLotters' above the titile. Photo is of a trailing begonia in one of my pots.

Awesome, only one of these was a mystery to me and I learned a few new things about those I have discussions with. I wish I could grow beautiful flowers like the ones in your garden ..... well, I do love the sun so maybe I shouldn't wish for something that has side affects like too many cloudy days. I'm looking forward to the next one

Awww, @jaboUK well, I can see why it would be a challenge to do any more but boy are these wonderful. How much time does it take to develop such insight into an individual as you've done?

@rebelann It depends - sometimes things about a person just jump out at me, other times I've really got to go into all their activity to get enough to write about. Even then I may not always be able to work it into a rhyme.

@jaboUK - Ms Janet - Grow a flower. Grow a verse. Don;t grow bugs. They're much the worse. Finally found this in the eleventh hour of digging for it - your eleventh in your series of 5-liners. Warn me the next time you decide to include you-know-who, OK? Then there will be an opportunity to hide out during the exposure. Bye-the-bye -- How many bees are there in "begonia?" (Nice picture of a fine vegetable, that one.)

@Ceerios Ha - you've found it at last. I'm not about to grow any bugs if I can help it, or vegetables either. You won't be included in these again - once you're done, you're done.

@jaboUK - Ms Janet - And, believe it or not, I felt quite "done." Reminded me of what our doc told us kids about our belly buttons. He said that thing in our middles was where the cook stuck us with a toothpick to see if we were done enough to be removed from the oven.
