#sanguine sand trickles
into the vial, a #sanguine
missing-tooth smile
imagining a bottled rainbow,
a #melange of color
to keep on her dresser

The supposedly fast and furious trip down the rapids, in which death could occur at any moment upon the squalls and various whirlpools, turned into quite a sedate, #sanguine experience for Rory, which involved adjusting the boats path every so often.

It was hardly heart-stopping.

Essence of sanguine
is easily discovered
with a simple smile.

"He's remarkably #sanguine."
"I believe most bodies have more blood than bile."
"What's that to do with..? Oh. Right. I wasn't talking about amount of blood vs other fluids."
"But I was. It was weird finding his wife has more bile than blood."
"Yes... He is unnaturally calm about it."

"Sholmes, six mangoes are missing"

"Where's Geriarty, Hatson?"

"Seen here, looking #sanguine"

"Whats his explanation?"

"He was testing their ripeness"

"Where are they?"

"He says they passed"

"Elementary, dear Hatson. Geriarty passed them through his stomach"

Perhaps these words are from the heart:
Sometimes warm and bright.
Or salty and stinging.
Anemic and swift some days
Rich and sluggish on others.

Phlegmatic or #sanguine,
When they stop flowing,
you'll know me for dead.

#vss365

Gave too little and lost a lot.
No one to hold as shelter,
no shore to call my own.

Drifting, lost…

Yet somewhere deep,
a #sanguine spirit sings
its #esoteric song,
longing to find a landing,
searching a place to call home.

There once was a fellow named #Sanguine,
Who grinned till the gray turned to sunshine.
His troubles were tall,
He shrugged through them all,
"Why worry?" he'd sing like a penguin.

I got into it with another supervisor tonight. Those sanguine views I held regarding my future with the company are all but dead. There's also a not so small chance I may be physically harmed. If anything happens to me, remember the name, Niki.

Nora casually mentions to Bob that before she met him she was tired of being alone. She didn't share it with the world, but she longed for a companion. Now his #sanguine presence and humour fit into every day as if it couldn't be otherwise. He nods and ruffles her hair.

From furious to
Sanguine to melancholy,
The pendulum swings.

"I used to be fairly sanguine about death. OK, before you say it, I'm often the cause; but his was ... utterly pointless."

Molly nodded. Finally, she said, "So you're going to get stoned and view a Rembrant?

"You could say it's time to look at the bigger picture, Moll"

The morning air has a bite and the light are low. I watch the trees turn yellow as the season begins to show. I am not sad about the September, no, I'm feeling fine. With an outlook that is crisp and a vibe is #sanguine. Finally the summer put itself to rest.

The boys:
"Did you see the barista?"
"No facades, eyes crystal-clear."
"A #sanguine smile for the guests."
"Gosh, I wonder if he is still single?"
"Men like that are not overlooked."
"He's wearing a great shirt as well."
"We could buy the same shirt."

The dog remained. She'd seen them together before he went in, so she had to assume he wouldn't leave without it. As long as the dog remained, so too did he.

#Sanguine now about her timing, Amy quickly crossed the street to the thrift shop. She needed to conceal her hair. #vss365 #writing

Field of bright faces
Finding joy throughout the day
Sanguine sunflowers

In an unrealistic universe
Of macros and subroutines
There is a shopkeeper
A mercator and trader
Name of Sanguinas Sweedy
He is at least cosmetically a male
But in a pixel universe it's all photons
He's off the beaten track
But any business is good business
His mood ever sanguine
