Lorelei
A Short Love Story Inspired by Richard Osman's House of Games
I didnβt know that Marilyn Monroeβs name in βGentlemen Prefer Blondesβ was Lorelei Lee, I found it out on Richard Osmanβs βHouse of Gamesβ and that kicked me off to write a love poem based on the concept of the Lorelei.

I fell for your Siren Song
My Beautiful Lorelei
Then I Fell In Love Headlong
I caught your beautiful eye
ππ§ββοΈπ
Above the sea, so aloof
Your voice so sweet, Alluring
Be My Queen, You Have My Heart
I Will Never Be Turning
ππ§ββοΈπ
My Lorelei, Sea Maiden
Mermaid girl, With voice of gold
Love your gentle persuasion
One day each other weβll hold
My Lorelei, I Am Yours
And So This Love Will Endure

Rachel Reviews: Lunch Tales: Teagan by Lucille Guarino
Well, I did enjoy this! Sometimes, all you need is just great storytelling and this is what Lucille Guarino delivers here. There's no big message to this book; it's just about folks and families, living their lives and coping with everything that's being thrown at them and finding their way. But when it's done well, like it is here, then you have characters to whom you can relate, tension which leaves you rooting for a better outcome, attraction which has your heart racing and an urge, as a reader, to see the characters happy with the people with whom they belong.
