As If


Gotta get ready for the wedding, and the internet's been down all morning, but I had to cruise by quickly and play Saturday Centus with y'all. Today Jenny's allowing 50 words plus the prompt, and I almost made it! (Sorry, five words over and don't have time to edit or I'll be late to the big event.) I promise to hit the word count right next week.

As If

No ridicule allowed???
What cloud
have you been living under?
Your antics make me
laugh out loud.
Let no man put asunder
your penchant for amusing me
with blunder after blunder.

It’s oh-so-true.
Without you,
I’d be blue as blue can be.
All jokes must have
a butt, my friend.
(And you’re the butt for me!)

    Are you talking to me? Given my last post, I wouldn't be surprised... but glad to oblige. I love friends, spouse, children, ANYONE who can make me laugh too.

    How can you just pop out this stuff? I am astonished at how you can write a poem with as little as three words.~Ames
