Jack climbed the beanstalk
And clambered inside
The giant was on a walk
so there was no need to hide
he grabbed all the gold
strewn over the table
and only took the stuff
with expensive designer labels
His mother was pleased
all money worries over
could even pay vet bills
for the old dog called Rover
Jack finally settled down
on the hill with Jill
making sure that she regularly
took the pill
he didn’t want kids
he didn’t want brats
he just wanted some peace
and a number of cats

That capture a booger line made me laugh.

I didn’t have the nerve to post this, but certain members of my family insisted.

White as snot

Winter has its pleasures
Unless you’re a mother
Of three kids under seven

You go around stuffing
Spare Kleenex in your pockets
On the alert for that first drippy nose

Soon you’re annoyed by
That stuff in the sky. You
Capture a booger before

It grows bigger while the
Younger ones are dribbling
Down to their chins.

Those who admire snow
You can tell them where to go
You wish global warming

Would hurry its arrival
Or else your survival
Depends on heading south.

At first I had no idea how to get into this prompt – but I relaxed, read some of the others and then just dived in! So here’s my offering, entitled “Hawk and Cheese”. :)

Thanks Deb! Indeed it was all true. This has been my favorite prompt of all time – both reading & writing. So much fun! As soon as I read it the words sibling revelry came to me. It didn’t take long to figure out where to go with it.

Good fun, Georgie.
(never saw millipedes dance, myself, but I’ll take your word for it since you’re right on all the other points)
