All the neighbors shopped on one block
Owners always kept wants in stock
Then Joe started helping himself
Stole his wants right from the shelf
Owners then watched Joe like a hawk.

Laughing Along With A Limerick
Limerick Time
MLMM Wordle
The time when soft distant chimes were causing a soothing melody is in the past. Unless you live in certain areas of Europe where the decades of sane villages continue pleasant chatter in a safe warm room. Now we retreat under a leafy weeping willow tree to enjoy a long private conversation.

Joe wanted a floral wallpaper design so went to a special wall design shop. He said to the salesman, “I want to look at wallflowers.”
The salesman said, “then you better go two doors down, there’s a bar there”, thinking he was making a joke. Meanwhile Joe was seriously focused on trying to decide between a peony or a lupin design.

Sunday’s Six Sentence Story Word Prompt!
The Sunday Whirl
The rattle of thunder and rush in the river was radar for the string of happenings to come. The haunted eyes, circled in black, the white skin stretched like pebbles over bones tips me off to what’s next. Some say it is only a legend, but when sharp tips of bony wings swing toward you very fast, ripping into your safe reality, you’ll believe anything!

3TC – Speeding
Fasten your seatbelt was the cry
As a flash of a stop sign flew by
Go faster said the genius in back
And then I realized the driver’s lack
Wasn’t wearing his glasses
As the country side passes
I suddenly spy
And offer a cry
There’s a ditch you can’t see
Guy in back agreed
And then we all landed at the edge of a sea!
This tale is short, not a great ending
When your ride is quickly descending
Driver should not be dim sighted,
Driving too fast and frankly, delighted.

One senyru and one haiku:

he can climb mountains
so tackled with confidence
the slide did him in

cold and jagged peaks
contrast soft yellow blossoms
nature’s conundrum
