Aplenty

Thou hast seen poverty aplenty, but thou art rich of mind.

Comparisons aplenty are being made.

At the end of last month, May of 2014, Bratislav, of Croatian descent, had left the Lulu Island neighbourhood, he having bought a new house and abandoning his slender townhouse. One of our last meetings in the neighbourhood was at the Rideau School field. We discussed plenty. Russia and China had been "State Capitalist" regimes and not "Communist" as they claimed to be. There was an alien "spacecraft" hovering invisibly above the grassy field; oh no, it was some kind of "portal"; oh no, it was an "incorporeal being." Many East Asian logograms, or "Sinograms," had a categorizing radical along with a hinting phonetic radical; they were not all pictographic. Daoists, I said, liked to be like a simple driftwood. There were aliens aplenty, Bratislav repeated. That day on the field last month, the thousands of dandelions were abundant with cloudy tufts of their soon-to-fly seeds.

We should plant aplenty of cherry and small fruit trees to yield feed for birds.

They had opportunities aplenty, but didn’t seize any.

We have helpers aplenty but lack the skilled support.

There are apples aplenty for all of us.

But Fallout’s almost inexhaustible supply of sticky situations provides suspense aplenty: This may be the closest this peerless series has ever come to making us believe that the mission may actually be impossible.

We leave on time and immediately I'm aware of the Cummins underfloor engine. There are rattles aplenty - this train is old, tired, and needs a refresh.
