You may know that this is my "Steemit birth month."
Why am I saying this?
Is it because of one "Little Girl" whose name is 
And you likely know her well too.
Why am I writing this to you who are reading it now?
I am a very suspicious person. And I don't trust that "Little Girl."
She "could" try to get me and my name in the limelight.
If you know me at all.
You know I like to hide off to the side.
I am not trying to be "King of the World" or Steemit or anything.
I move along at turtle speed.
I like to hide in the shadows.
I am more than comfortable with "all of you" being in the Steemit limelight.
So sorry if you thought otherwise of me. I am a quiet man.
Just as the turtle/tortoise moves along slow and eats the grass in front of him.
That is how I like to be. Calm, slow, and let the rest of the world race on.
And just as our friend, the tortoise peeps around some for safety's sake.
That is what I do. I am not a very trusting soul.
And I do know the "little women's" of our world. Ha
When you see them coming your direction. Run for your life.
The faster you can run away. The better it will be for you. Ha ha
It has to be much faster than turtle speed too.
I know the cute and neat little ways of the girls will surely be a snare and and a trap that you cannot easily escape out of. Ha ha
So, if our dear Friend
Don't you dare join in with her folly.
If you do. I will not upvote your reply. Ha ha.
Just kidding. I always want to do the right thing for my Steemit Friends.
See how calm and carefree our friend the turtle is here.
He/she will live a long time age wise. They have very few worries.
Everything they need is right in front of them
See how easy life can be? lol
Now, with all of that said and out of the way.
Let us get back to what is important.
Such as this. I love it.
If you like pine cones. You would like this place.
This is what I like. Open, quiet, and peaceful.
Sometimes you have to be vigilant and look around.
What you are seeking could be just around the corner.
Just as the metal detector guys and gals find something so interesting.
Here is what gets me excited as I walk along.
It is always a surprise to see something so pretty and appealing right in front of me.
But, back to the race track we go. I have been left in the dust. Ha
I am not troubled at all about that though. lol
Moving along at a slower pace doesn't spook the bird as a bicycle would.
This could be a good way to relax. Cruising along slowly with a line in the water trying to catch a mackerel or some other good fish.
Back to the trail again.
Something will be right in front of us to see most of the time.
We only have to be there and look.
This can be seen before it grows to be a big plant now.
A year from now. I wouldn't be able to look down at it.
I am not sure I will be here a year from now to see it though.
And when I am gone. I won't get to see this anymore either.
But, that is OK.
I will get to see many other new and interesting things of our world.
We have so much to sing about and try to be happy.
So, I will have to find something to fit the mood of our day.
This seems to fit in "some" with the content of this post.
See what you think?

Yes. You are right.
It is a little bit different. Ha
Francis. What is this post all about?
That has been my question all through it today.
Have you ever heard the expression?
"Name it and a claim it?"
Open ended with the rest of the story to be filled in as the days go by.
That is all I know.
Thank you Steemit for helping me to share with my Friends.
May our days go on forever.
Thank you
Francis
