A short story …

For Friday Fictioneers

.snowkybrush.regular.

ROSEY LARGE BWPMy friend Rosey loves the snow, so she went for a slippery stroll in the park.  

She spotted two kids from her class at school feeding the ducks, Cheeky Charley and Mischievous Millie. Just for a laugh, she threw snowballs at them. Mistake! They bombarded her in return. Turning her back, she found herself facing two more little devils, Giggly Grace and Joker Jack who joined in the fun!

‘Hey kids, stop that’ called one of their Mums and off they scarpered.

‘Bye Miss Snosey’ Charley shouted!

She looked like a living snowman but she didn’t mind, she’d loved every minute of it!

    Snowball fights always start off fun, until you end up on the receiving end! Nice one Keith.

    Dear Keith,

    Rosey sounds like the eternal child. Fun stuff. You made me smile.

    Shalom,

    Rochelle

      Oh, she is! So much so that the kids in her class often forget she’s a member of the staff not one of them!

    Roses are red,
    Clouds are quite high,
    If there’s a brick in that snowball
    You could lose an eye!

      In the making
      when it’s vacant
      It’s yours for the taking.

    If there is snow, why not have fun with it. Good story, great graphic, Keith.

    I do remember enjoying snowball fights a long time back but thinking about them now makes me shudder, bring on the warmth, bring on the intense sunlight!

    A Keith, the scampering of youth, damp and cold, with blue lips and drippy noses and smiles as wide as the sky. 🙂

    I have to say that this picture screamed… okay, maybe just yelled… for a Rosey tale! Fun stuff.

    • Keith's Ramblings's avatar Keith's Ramblings February 25, 2021 / 10:29

      That’s what I thought the moment I saw it! Thanks for providing her with a way out of lockdown!

        So glad I could provide 🙂

    I think Rosey will always be a kid at heart. She’s a fun gal.
    You have the best character names. A few gave me a snicker, Keith.

    Very apt use of the prompt, and a story which made me smile

    Looks like Rosey loves the attention and can create a storm wherever she goes.
    perhaps a few snow balls thrown at the Mums might lighten their mood and join in the fun.

    • Keith's Ramblings's avatar Keith's Ramblings February 26, 2021 / 11:59

      That’s true! I wonder why she didn’t! Cheers James.

    Rosey must be the most popular teacher in school. Fun story.

  21. jenne49's avatar jenne49 February 27, 2021 / 13:13

    Love the snow fun! And Snowsey Rosey ‘not minding a bit’ being bombarded!

  22. Brenda's Thoughts's avatar Brenda's Thoughts February 27, 2021 / 21:50

    I’m with Rosey, I love a good snowball fight, win or lose, and I lost a good share of them with two older brothers! Lovely story, Keith.

    • Keith's Ramblings's avatar Keith's Ramblings February 28, 2021 / 15:56

      If wars were fought with snowballs the world would be a happier place! Thanks, Brenda.

    At least she can enjoy a good time, even if she doesn’t have an alliterative name

    What a cute story. I’ve never been in the snow and can only imagine what it must be like to be pelted and covered in snow .

    • Keith's Ramblings's avatar Keith's Ramblings March 2, 2021 / 17:37

      It really is fun, no matter what your age! Thanks Unishta.
