Get to Know You #54

Heavy footsteps were heard as they approached the object. “Hmmm” Bogg said to his companion, Bink. “What do you think this is?”

Bink looked it over carefully, lifted up one of the corners and decided it was not dangerous. “It looks harmless. Could it be the instructions you were looking for when you were trying to make improvements to that heavy barrow we’ve been dragging around to bring wood from the forest?”

“Hmmm, maybe. I’ll try some of them. It would be nice to make life easier.”

“That’s what you said when you made the barrow”.

PROMPT WORD:  WIND

***

Wind is no stranger to me now that I live in Cheyenne. Planes have been tested here at our small airport because of it. I don’t really need a calendar to figure out when winter is coming because when the winds start getting stirred up, you know that cold and snow are not far behind. An anomaly was seen this morning when I woke up to 3°. I looked out the window and it was like a winter wonderland, all the trees bushes, etc. were magically covered in frosted snow. Apparently the wind took a break, and instead of looking at half covered trees, they were completely covered beautifully.

Weekend Writing Prompt #403 – Theory

For today’s Poetics, I want you all to select ONE of the following three options and write a poem:

I chose #3:

Joe was no genius, she knew from the start

But June loved Joe with her whole heart

It started downhill when she sent him a text

He looked at it, didn’t know what to do next.

He asked a friend to help him write one

That was a mistake, quick as a wink it was done

Whatever was said zoomed through the air

And Joe never knew his friend didn’t care

The text that he wrote was rude and crude

June couldn’t believe the words he spewed

June texted back saying I thought you were sweet

But you’re just like the others with nasty tweets

Joe read her response and had no idea what she meant

He decided to see her to explain what she sent

The moral of the story is, if you don’t know tech’s place

You better stay meeting just face-to-face.
