Zoo: Word of the Day Challenge

Monkeys at the Zoo

What kind of monkey do you think you will see
if you go to the zoo with your brother and me?

Will it be a chimpanzee who likes to play tricks
or a Gorilla who knows how to bang with some sticks?

Will it be a macaque with a head full of hair
or a lemur whose striped tail sticks straight in the air?

Will it be a Baboon or a cute marmoset?
When will we get there, are we there yet?

Pedestrian: Ragtag Daily Prompt

Written for: https://ragtagcommunity.wordpress.com/2020/03/31/rdp-tuesday-pedestrian/

When I think of a pedestrian I think of Roald Dahl’s story Umbrella Man. https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B4OkcpPeElJEcEdnRWdtbUN6WDg/edit
Just thought I would put that out there!

Pedestrians

People
Everywhere
Determined and
Energized
Simultaneously
Taking in
Reality in
Intersections
Across
Nations

Where you walk you see
The world around is beauty
in its simplest form.

Three Things Challenge #191

HUMOUR
PIECE
NOSE

Written for: https://pensitivity101.wordpress.com/2020/03/31/three-things-challenge-191/ Thank you Di for hosting!

Why do babies find humor in putting pieces of food up their noses?
Is it because peas are a perfect fit?
Is it because yogurt is soft and smooth?
Is it because pretzel sticks go in just enough to still stick out?

I think it is the feeling they get when they see grown-ups smile.
I think it is the love they feel when a grown-up laughs.
I think it is because God put a hole so close to the mouth that things accidentally shift.

Kids are known for sticking crazy things up their noses. Step by step instructions for what to do when your child has something stuck up their nose.

What is Love?

Is Love like finding a fortune?
Love fills you up
Love keeps you happy
Love buys you memories
Love prepares you for your future
Love can slip away if used foolishly
Love can disappear if not cared for
Yes, Love is like finding a fortune.

March 2020 Writing Prompts

Written for: https://puttingmyfeetinthedirt.com/2020/03/01/march-2020-writing-prompts/

prompt: Finding rainbows between the clouds

Finding Rainbows

I barely get to see one
but every time I do
the colors are so brilliant
the red, green and blue.

It is a special feeling
to drive below the arc
I wonder where the gold is
I think that I should park.

I’d park and walk forever
to find that filled up pot
cause gold could keep me busy
it could help me out a lot.

I know what I would do then
if gold is what I found
I’d buy the world some sunshine
and peace for all around.

I’d hope to get my life back
for I’ve lost so much since then
I live for all my chances
I’ll wait for where and when.

This time I keep on driving
below the colored sky
I’ll wish for lots more colors
for now, I say goodbye.

Gamble: FOWC with Fandango

https://fivedotoh.com/2020/03/31/fowc-with-fandango-gamble/

Take a chance

Have you ever thrown a penny
in a wishing well?
Did you get to see it
before it even fell?
When you play the tables
you watch it slip away
Gambling takes your pennies
And you can’t help but play.
The only difference here now
is what to do when done
at least when you are wishing
you’re bound to have some fun.
The slots are like the tables,
the more you bet you win
but if you bet your savings
the tears come quickly in.
For when you leave your money
to simply throw away
you might as well go get a wish
it’s bound to make your day.
