A bachelor ~ gentleman~ came to call one day
and he had all intentions, to live and stay!
He came from a place not so far away,
And his name it is told is "Sebastian Henry"!
In a box he traveled "no frills" said he,
though he packed all of his handstitched fineries!!
He traveled with his head, upon his side
and when attached he was then very well alive!!
He was a charming, and sharp as royalty,
but just as personable as you'd expect him to be!
Tea was set and he stayed for awhile,
speaking of travels and books that he read in style!
He shared of history, and poems and tales,
of music and dances and practicing scales
His presence was strong and his
and his eyes were deep
No sooner catch ye your breath and fan your cheeks,
he was off to explore not missing a beat!
For after all, "There are many ladies fair,
plenty to dazzle, there's no time to spare!"
Without missing a step, he was off and around,
It was upstairs for greetings to some ladies he'd found!!
Without any haste he was making new friends,
and each little dolly hoped it would never end!
He brought along his faithful steed, who's name is “Nelson”
more shiny and strong than any prize winning stallion!
He came quite prepared though he had traveled light
for where he settled his charms would surely be bright!
Nelson and he took a turn in the yard
checking perimeters and to size matters out
" A good place to settle and rest for a while"
and to gather good flowers,
" for the women with style"!

Do You Know JESUS?
There is a reason for Sebastian to come here to stay,
for the two little teen girls have gone astray!
For romance they are stirred and the latest news
what everyone's talking of and what anyone knew!
They have discovered the modern conveniences,
from a time too familiar to our own futureness!
So the answer it seems is the age old language
Music and practice I am sure they will manage
So he set at his keyboard and began to play,
and he knew in an instant that here he would stay!!
it sent straight through to their spines
and they knew from that moment that with
music they'd bind!!

Darling Linnie, HELLO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteYou still reign as one of the best doll posers in Blogland! I was smiling and intrigued the whole story through as you beautifully posed this gentleman! The look on his face, the cock of his head, the teen girls ON THEIR CELLPHONES! That was a hooooooooot and a half, and you brought back so many found memories of Nowhere, Tea Rat and Rattus, Miss Moussie, Bebe from my beloved friend Penny, Jeri Landers' wild and wooly creations.....dearest Linnie, I hope you are well and enjoying the grace of God in your life! Much love!
C'est charming! Wanting to read more of his adjustment & adventures.
ReplyDeleteCharming, indeed! He is dressed in the smartest finery and your poetic telling of his story is perfect. I'm loving his music as well, just as the other ladies are being mesmerized. The 3-story apartment is charming as well. I hope all is well--it's so good to hear from you.
