Robot – Squares 2025 – geometric January
For Becky’s challenge:
The geometry of a city skyline
***
This is a little blue/silver/white rolling robot like R2D2. It was a fun thing in the children’s wing of the hospital one time. There are lots of shapes on him, like circles, domes, squares, triangles, rectangles, etc. 🙂

Three Things Challenge # 9
https://lightmotifs.wordpress.com/2019/02/22/three-things-challenge-pl9/

Today’s prompt: hammock, whistle, robot
***
I can’t whistle, I’ve never relaxed in a hammock, and I don’t have a robot.
But, here’s a little poem I wrote a few years ago about a robot.

ROBUSTY the ROBOT
The little, robust robot
Was in a fine fettle
Made out of tin
He resembled a kettle
Some called him a teapot
They thought he was sweet
‘Cause he went around whistling
To all that he’d meet
Now one day it happened
The world needed saving
Politicians were loudly
Ranting and raving
Robusty, the robot
Didn’t like what he saw
So our little hero
Called it a draw
He ran for president
That very day
He made speeches galore
And had plenty to say
Robusty’s whistling
Became words of wisdom
He was voted in
On a platform of freedom
Now our own Robust Robot
Had heeded the call
No more little teapot
He was standing tall

added verse…

But, it came to pass
He was the lame duck
His time was past
He earned his rest in a nice hammock

Well, kind of silly that ending, but I needed to get hammock in there somewhere! haha 🙂

JUST JOT IT JANUARY 2017 – DANGER 
Today the prompt word for the triple J challenge is ‘Danger’.
Thanks for hosting, Dan! You can find Dan’s blog, No Facilities, by clicking this link. https://nofacilities.com/about/
The Just Jot It January 10th prompt, brought to you by Matthew over at MWLange is: “Danger.” Use it any way you like. Make sure you stop by Matthew’s website and say hello to him! https://singularfiction.wordpress.com/blog/

First, for the prompt word ‘Danger’, I thought of a rock band from quite a few years ago, that called themselves Danger Danger. I heard them referred to also as D2. I liked a lot of bands back then, the so called ‘hair bands’, but really wasn’t into this one so much.
Next, I thought of the old black and white TV series, “Lost In Space”. We watched this show all the time. The show had a robot who was supposed to be smart, or something, but he was always telling the little boy on the show, to be careful. He’d say, “Danger, Danger, Will Robinson!”, whenever the boy was doing something he shouldn’t be doing. Anyway, to this day, our family still says that catchphrase to each other when we’re giving out a warning, or just being silly. 🙂
Here’s a short clip of the robot & the boy.
