The Bag Lady

Joe could never be called boring

He always had his friends roaring

His jokes were not neat

Always about feet

No matter as drinks kept pouring

Laughing Along With A Limerick

FATE

Everyone wondered where he had gone

The mad leader, the unbalanced one

A small boy saw the true vision

The gods above made a decision

His hate, his cruelty they could see

Transformed him into a blackened tree.

What do you see # 317- 1st December 2025

A friend from the company was shopping with me and we stopped for a coffee. Suddenly a fight broke out when one vocal man from the crowd said “we need to declare war on them”. Apparently, “them” referred to a secret expedition of aliens who were disguised as elephants. Thankfully the flush police presence solved the problem and the troubled man was taken to the hospital for observation.

Monday Wordle #453

Starting the morning with gripper socks

Warm and cozy, bottom has bumps

A fairly good accessory to prevent knocks

In case I slip and don’t want any 🫨

I’ve been saddled with one foot in a sock

Almost a year now and guess it’s a lock

A few more weeks till my right heel heals

A boring story, please, no sympathy feels.🙃

So back to my morning, coffee’s a must

My one cup maker never sees any dust

I find the caffeine doesn’t affect me at all

I’ve even read it’s a benefit call👍🏻😛

Well then I take my cup to the table

And write with my iPad as I’m able

It takes all my morning, a fine treat

And then about three find something to eat.

It’s boring to read this and more boring to live

If it weren’t for reading and comments you give.🥳

I admit I’m no poet, but it’s fun to try

And telling stories, I like it, oh my

Sometimes I’m stuck on a picture prompt🧐

But trying to write, always a fun romp.

So do not get too serious these holidays

And find the love in so many ways!🤓

My great granddaughter, 3 1/2. The “wonder” is what it’s about💚❤️

* I guess practice what I preach fits here🙄

Once Upon a Time

Throw him in the pen! Said loudly by all the court’s men. The thief was trite. He tried his might. But it didn’t appeal to the judge’s seal. Even though he promised to never do it again.

If only they really knew constituents
Listened to pleas and were fluent
In their language, and cared to listen
To ideas and words, not be remiss then
Actually care about those persons
Instead they let the communities worsen
Building walls instead of bridges
Not listening, remaining rigid.

Weekend Writing Prompt #444 – Fluent

darkened depth

liquid blues fading

deep water rippling

moving waves never ending

schooled fish formations

diving rewards in white sand

lighting shown is upside down

SenHai Saturday #28

Saturday and you’ve had your fill

Thanksgiving with all its thrills

But now another rising task

Christmas shopping, alas!

,I’ll just drink cocoa, and be numb

And eat frosted cookies, every crumb.
