Magpie Tales #7

Magpie tales hosts a weekly photo writing prompt

A short or poem will do



This week's photo:

                 
                                                                Bright trumpets of yellow
                                                                heralding spring...
                                                                I wished instead
                                                                He'd given a ring
                                                               
                                                                A sparkly one
                                                                with faceted face
                                                                But he'll find out
                                                                in tonight's embrace

                                                                Unless I get that rock
                                                                old man
                                                                all you'll get
                                                                is the
                                                                two-lips
                                                                plan

  8. Dorothy Parker felt the same:

    "Why is it no one ever sent me yet,
    One perfect limousine, do you suppose?
    Oh no, it's just my luck always to get
    One perfect rose."

    Good one, Suz!

  13. Suz--I used to know a joke about "planting tulips" (two lips!). Is this much the same???? You have a great sense of humor. Love the photo of the tagger. We were just noticing all the tags on a rail car on Sunday. Some are quite beautiful...some are angry. Better the anger in that form than tied to a bomb on your waist I suppose!
