Maxim of the Week

Akbar felt his back go out just as Rowena flung herself into his arms at the start of their dance routine.
Maxim:
Here I stand, I can do no other.

Well done! You brought an early morning smile to my face.

Susan said...

I'll always laugh now when I hear that expression (and think of you)!

Funny way to see how "to stand".

DCW said...

The timbre can be hard on the lumbar.

louciao said...

Bonnie,
Outstanding.

louciao said...

Susan,
I've never heard that expression! Nice to be thought of with a smile, though.

louciao said...

Otli,
We all have to take a stand at some point, no matter how it looks to others.

louciao said...

DCW,
Akbar should have taken the time to lumbar up beforehand.

Leovi said...

A lovely and colorful picture with your great game of lines.

and thank goodness or she would be flat on the floor.

louciao said...

Leovi,
They were line dancing!

louciao said...

sukipoet,
Good point! Luckily it wasn't his arms that gave way. Always look on the bright side. But that's a maxim for another day!

and his face says: "and now? how to go on?"... but he will manage this, as there is no other option;)

i always love your maxims, they make me think and smile at the same time!

Stickup Artist said...

I have a feeling that in this case, the show will certainly not go on!

louciao said...

johanna,
Thinking and smiling at the same time = happy thoughts!
:-)

louciao said...

Stickup,
Oh,I think it will, but just not in the way it was planned. I have a feeling that Rowena will rise to the occasion and literally dance circles around Akbar.

Deborah said...

What fun! You capture so much in a few clever lines.

Julie@beingRUBY said...

That Rowena.. always has to take everything to extremes... Hope Akbar has managed to sit down by now...

Another lovely entry.. Have a fab week.. ciao xxx Julie

Deborah,
I'm glad you like my little scribble drawings. I do have fun making them.

louciao said...

julie,
I think once Akbar manages to sit down he'll be sitting out the next dance or so for a few months. I doubt that Rowena will sit still for that!
