Sir Wilma and Madam Walter: Compilation 8/8/22

Walter was a hen and Wilma was a drake
They were the perfect pair, ducks swimming on the lake
They spent their days in sun with energy replete
With added bliss of food right under their four feet
One day Sir Wilma cried for he had lost his gal
Overbearing sadness, some kind of living hell
Being pathological wouldn’t do him any good
So he went back to the car and he sat upon the hood
He waited til the dark made it harder for him to see
He figured he’d go home and make a cup of tea
Later that same night there was knocking on the door
In came lovely Walter and she was mad for sure
She was fit with rage at the actions Wilma had.
She told him she was angry, she told him she was mad.
He showed no reluctance to hamper her madness
to live out his life sentence, to always do his best.

Sammy held on tight as his sister pedaled faster and faster. He didn’t know how the bike was staying upright with only two wheels and he wondered how his sister would ever be able to stop.

Melanie laughed and laughed, having fun both riding fast and terrifying the little bugger! She loved that she was the only one who knew how to ride a bike. She took her feet off the pedals so they could glide down the hill. The whole time, Sammy was screaming and begging her to stop. The biggest problem was she was also worried about how to stop. All of her practice had been on her flat driveway. She didn’t want to focus on that right now though, she wanted Sammy to think she had it all under control.
