Thoughts and Tales…A Lifestyle Blog with a Zing.
Courtesy of Wild Daffodil’s 8-year-old granddaughter Miss E, who sent in a poem to Ron’s haiku, we get some interesting set of word prompts this week ‘dragon and invite.’ Well, let’s see who’s breathing fire 😉
With the haiku prompt of dragon invite
my mind takes me back
to Bruce Lee’s movie, enter the Dragon.
****
Please don’t invite her for the party
She’s such a feisty dragon
Her flaming tongue will incinerate my guests.

It’s impossible to lick your elbow! Ha! I bet you tried it 😉

‘Shopping is better than sex. If you’re not satisfied after shopping you can make an exchange for something you really like.’ Adrienne Gusoff
A hilarious quote, but true enough 😉
The shopping must have gone well. Now they want to ride a horse 🙂
The family reunion
Was a disaster!
Aunt Biddy
And aunt Jemimah
Got into a huge squabble.
Uncle Pete threw a punch
Aunt Agatha spat like a cat
Lot’s of secrets
Were let out of the bag
Food flew in the air
The table broke
The chairs broke
I ran for cover.

No, I have no idea why he’s covering his face 😉
As I walked I met a black cat
Sitting beside the trash can
Black cat and I
Stared each other in the eye.
His were vivid green
Mine as it’s always been
He meowed a bit
And he moved to my feet.
He looked mighty harmless
His velvety fur was spotless
And since he was nameless
I called him cuteness.
He couldn’t cast any spell
As far as I could tell
It must be an old wives tale
A superstitious belief gone stale.
To paint a poor kitty black
Not cutting it any slack.
I returned to pore over my mail
And indulged in a tall, cold glass of ginger ale.
