Prose Please

She sat down at her ‘puter with hands on the keys.

(a story to write that surely would please)

Another challenge she now had started.

(she always had been a bit foolhearted)

She was not going to write her story in rhyme.

(at least for once not this time)

The stories others write are ever so clever.

(to accomplish that would take her forever)

They use exotic verbs and some other words.

(just to describe the bees and the birds)

Their entries with adjectives always are padded.

(sounds so silly what they have added)

One blogger always writes a funny ending

(seems to be now what is a trending)

Another writes tales that are so gruesome.

(has the nerve to suggest a twosome)

Then there is he who notes his word count.

(must think his blog is paramount)

And now this story has come to a close.

(and to think she’s written it all in prose)

The Magic Unicorn Challenge encourages us to have fun and use our imagination to create a story of 250 words or less based on a given picture. The picture reminded me of having to choose between coffee or tea. I usually write in rhyme so this week I decided to attempt to write prose. No problem, I can do that.

 

 

Last week a crazy blogger called me a crazy lady for using my imagination. And the crazy part was that the comment was not made on my blog but on another crazy blogger’s blog. I wonder if he dare be crazy enough to call me a crazy lady on my own blog. And I wonder who the other crazy blogger was who liked the post that called me a crazy lady. Maybe it was a crazy unicorn?
