Sammiscribbles Weekend Writing Prompt
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.

Thanksgiving with all its thrills
But now another rising task

And eat frosted cookies, every crumb.

winter cooling winds arrive
wilding wolves and foxes gather families
insects burrow to survive
see geese flying south in vees
Mother Nature observing dwindling leaves

Can You Tell a Story in 54?
If he was a girl
They’d call her busty
But he was a man so was thought of as husky.
He tried all the diets of lettuce greens
Caused spaceman eyes and acne supreme
A wheelbarrow of romaine could fill his plate
And find his hairline receding, a horrible fate –
No more diets!

Gloria kept strutting around, hoping to stand out enough on the purple gravel to attract George, her favorite beau. “George likes flowers, and I think he’ll be happy to see the ones I’m wearing.”
“You be careful now!” As Gina left, she saw George jump down, landing right next to Gloria. “Guess she was right, he does love those flowers!”

“Seeing is believing, but I still can’t fathom it!” Joe declared, sitting with his wife Maddie. Maddie thought it was impossible to hear. The past few months had been a nightmare, as far as she and Joe were concerned. Joe lost his regular job, and Maddie was just hanging on to hers, a nurse in the small local hospital. It seemed that since Joe had now become part of the National Guard, his beliefs were skewed. The town was in turmoil with Joe and his friends asked to do the president‘s bidding. “They shot and killed him”, he mumbled sadly.
