E - Enter This Deserted House, Envy

Yesterday, Bushman @ The High Cost of this Low Living commented that he was glad to see we are all getting Equally spammed. I say it's bs. These Anon's are killing me! - Just wanted to throw this in here.
Now on to the challenge!


************************************************************

Check out what book cover this little cut out comes from over at Cover Girls!

  1. I'm going to have to remember that poem-cute! Just curious, did you ready ENVY? And if so, how was it?

  2. Mr. Anonomous has been hanging out on my blog for about a year. He sends me two or three comments daily. That's why I have to approve all comments-a real pain but I don't want him to take over.

    Thanks for visiting me. :) Your place looks interesting (and energetic) so I'm a new follower here and on Twitter!

  3. That picture is so perfect for that poem!

  4. OH, I love Shel Silverstein!

    And I'm with you on the anonymous comments. Some of them are funny, but most are just bizarre.

  5. I love that poem!

    I had to delete two more anonymous comments this morning. Ugh.

  6. That's a Silverstein poem that begs to be read out loud.

  7. One of my favorites, due in large part to the goblins.

  9. Great poem!

    Creepy cover for sure! I definitely want to read it.

  10. Aww that's a lovely poem, it makes me want to go outside! And you're right, that does remind me of The Ring - there's something about long hair in horror movies!

  11. Envy is creepy. That cover gives me chills.

  12. I like that poem. I never read Shel Silverstein as a kid, so whenever I see his stuff now, it's new to me.

    I always get a lot of spam. I'm not getting any more than usual during the challenge so far.

  13. Shel Silverstein is one of my favorites! Great piece.

  14. Definitely not so into the creepy, but that poem is awesome!!

    Spam? I haven't gotten any! Odd, seeing as how I always got it BEFORE the challenge. o_O

  16. This poem reminds he of the first verse of the song 'Little Talks.' Wow that cover is super creepy. I planned to get this book long ago but didn't.

  17. I don't allow anon comments, so it's not a problem for me! I love Shel, even if he wrote from prison.

  19. The poem and the picture are wonderful!

  20. creepy cover for sure. I don't think I'll be reading that one. Love the picture to go with Shel's poem. I'm thinking about teaching it to my kids. They'd get a kick out of it.

    ReplyDelete
  21. Are you getting much anonymous comments? I had not gotten any. So unfair! Kidding. I changed my settings to no anonymous allowed. I fear I might have made things difficult for a few decent bloggers but I think it's the best, at least during the challenge. :)

  22. I loved that poem! And Gregg Olsen does creepy very well.

    ReplyDelete
  23. Never really read Shel Silverstein. Now I want to buy one of the books for my nephews or me. Either way...fantastic.

    And that Gregg Olsen cover is awesome.

  25. Thanks for listing my blog in your blog feature! I hate spam posts, that's why I turned off anonymous commenting. It's really helped cut down on that.

    ReplyDelete
  26. I love Shel Silverstein! Also, the cover of ENVY does look Ring-esque :-)

    ReplyDelete
  27. I'm not all that familiar with Silverstein, but I've heard of him. I like what I've seen, so far.

    ReplyDelete
  28. Aww, I love that poem and pic! And I also love creepy so Envy captured my interest, one more for my TBR list.

    Have a great weekend!

  31. Sorry about all that spam. I enjoyed the poem, and then got delightfully creeped out by the ENVY cover. Cool!
    Fun post. :-)

    ReplyDelete
  32. Cover and poem are awesome!

    I haven't issues with spam so far. Fingers crossed that it stays that way.

    ReplyDelete
  33. You called it; the book cover definitely looks like the Ring.

    ReplyDelete
  34. I've never read that one before. I love it. I'm going to print it and frame it and hang it right in my house. It fits me so well.

    ReplyDelete
  35. I don't allow anon comments either. Got something to say, register and speak up! :)

  36. Hi Dani, I went into the settings and used the option below allowing anonymous comments. I was getting so much of the stuff from the trolls that I drew a picture to remind myself to not feed or lash out at the trolls. In the end I got rid of the ability for them to leave anonymous comments. You can see my troll picture at this link http://devotionals-margot.blogspot.com/2013/03/dont-feed-trolls.html

    Like the Silverstein and the pretty cover. I need to get over and see that site. Maybe I will head there next.

    Blessings, Margot

    I'm with ya- the spam is a pain :(

    ReplyDelete
  38. Another fantastic poem! I might have to write that one down somewhere.

  39. You're putting out some good poems here! Love that one. And that is a creepy cover.

  40. Like your ghostly poem
    guess the house has a voice as well as all the inhabitants

  41. I love Shel Silverstein! --And this yard sounds like mine. *shudders* Here's to better grounds keeping, eh?

    ReplyDelete
  42. Love the imagery of ain't no ceiling, only blue. Shel rocks! Loving your A to Z theme. Looking forward to F through Z.

    ReplyDelete
  43. Yikes! That's a scary cover. I do quite fancy reading it, though. Those abandoned houses do seem to have character. We have one round the corner that's only half-built. Hey, you should disallow anonymous comments. It's one of the best things I ever did in terms of spam control!

    ReplyDelete
  44. Ohhhh AWESOME!!!!!!!!! I'll be back to read the rest of your A to Z posts.

    This is one Shel S. poem I don't think I remember. But I like it!
