Strange sounds in the air
perhaps it’s a wisp of snipe
demons raise their guns

Crimson’s Creative Challenge #133 “Mummy knows what’s best.”
Mummy duck and baby duck
were going for a walk
suddenly from up above
they heard a loud squawk
quickly dear, said mummy duck
come in and get close to me
for if that big bird sees you
he will take you home for tea
but the silly little duckling
didn’t do what his mummy said
so the greedy seagull in the sky
swooped down and carried him off instead

The trick or treaters getting weary
found our Uncle Fester cheery
even if he did look somewhat eerie
as smiling he said, “Hello dearie.”

Plunge your net downward
for the river runs rapid
still waters run deep

Ronovan writes Decima prompt #56 Symphony of life
I’m sure you don’t have to be told
the pleasure gained from listening
enraptured as the songbird sings
though whether it be wet or cold
his notes will shine like liquid gold
from his high perch up in the trees
his joyful tunes ride on the breeze
we can be sure he does not need
a written score from which to read
his repertoire is sure to please.

A natural high
that’s guaranteed to refresh
a breath of fresh air

Crimson’s Creative Challenge #131
I decided I would take a photo
of the old Minster’s rose window
for when the sun shines down through the glass
you can see Saint Maria’s ass
as she leads it along the main street
in order to find grass to eat
but although I am not one to complain
sadly the weather turned to rain
so we went home, my camera and me
for there was no Pepper’s Ghost to see

Cluster of comments
in red ink on white paper
sense of foreboding

I’d like to tell you a little tale
about a girl called Rita Hayward,
with her independent outlook
her parents thought her wayward,
but like many women in those days
she liked to think herself liberated,
certainly her breasts turned out to be as
when while on a date she co-operated
with the removal of her underclothes
giving me a quite expectant thrill,
imagine how my pulses quickened
when she said, “It’s okay I’m on the pill
When the pen takes control.
