It's hard to believe that we're already at the end of Round 9 in ABC Wednesday! Actually, it's quite timely, since we've just started a new year - 2012 - and hopefully, like me, you all have a new zest for life. Although the weather may be cold, wet or white, let's all find something to get excited about - make snow angels, buy some new wellies and a new brollie and sing in the rain, or experiment with taking photos during a dark, grey day. It won't be long and we'll see snow drops, hyacinths, narcissi, daffodils, and tulips! So don't sleep away these dark days of winter, but rather get out and about with a zealous attitude!ZEAL
Zeal is like promiscuous purple pansies.
It looks like playful, chattering chimpanzees.
It sounds like giggles that turn into hoots.
It smells like French fries and tropical fruits.
It tastes like Snickers and sugar and spice.
It feels like daring delight rolling the dice.
Zeal is enthusiasm for everything in life.

It was in the 40s (c 8C) in Albany, though windy. unseasonably warm.
You always seem to have a ZEST for life; that's what I like about you!

Oh, I need a new zest for life! I have been so blue lately and for no particular reason.
The weather here is psychotic.....it's warm right now and we have our a/c on.....what's up with that???
I love your poem and the photograph.
Very nice Leslie, - I always liked that word as well, - ZEST for life, - a good thing to keep in mind.
There used to be a bath soap called Zest. Is it still around? Apparently bathing with it gave one the best zest for life.
Love your poem and the pictures you placed in my mind.
This is a great way to end the round! I've so enjoyed getting to know you better through the posts and comments. So now is it time to get a little zealous about Round 10?!
Now I know what to look for with zeal!
People with zeal have great attitudes! :) Yes, it is hard to believe we have come to then end of this round~
Great Z word, Leslie! Thanks for the poems you wrote in this ninth round.
I'll have to come out there for a visit if I want to see "snow drops, hyacinths, narcissi, daffodils, and tulips" but I'll try to keep my zeal up despite the frozen ground.

I love the poem - especially like daring delight rolling the dice! Great post.
Nice poem, Leslie. Happy New Year to you.
Beautiful poem!
Zing is it for me. Hope you can visit and see. Have a nice day!
As I read the comments, I remembered like Sue...using soap call Zest...as I recall it was either bright blue or green. Rather a strong odor too..
I prefer Dove....
I think like Roger...you do have a Zest for life. Have enjoyed your A-Z this round.
I remember seeing Zest soap too. Very nice poem Leslie..
Zodiac is one of my entries. Come see it when you get a chance. Thanks!
I like the Z words you have come up with Zest and Zeal...yes very nice indeed. Funny I am playing Words with friends on Facebook and I have of course the letter Z and I am trying to find a "Z" that will fit....urgh! Would have loved to have put a few of your words in!
Zest is valuable - your poem is delightful. See ya in Round 10!
Like others, I remember the soap Zest, mainly because of its very strong perfume. I was allergic to it. Great posts , Leslie. Now to go again.
Yes! Zeal is something that we should all have more of, shouldn't we? Love that last image too...
Zeal makes an amaZing finale for round 9!
Ah, another wonderfully playful and descriptive post, Leslie - and I myself am also full of zest, just thinking of your upcoming summer visit to us!
As usual a great post - way to go finishing the round !!
