for Sammi’s Weekend Writing Prompt where the given word is Yonder and the limit, 44 words.
Now this is wierd. This story came into my head whilst I lay in bed this morning, and before I’d seen the prompt. I just had to change ‘over there’ to ‘yonder’!
.
‘Look yonder’ I said. ‘Isn’t that, err, Scarlet, Chris and their mum?’
‘That’s not a scarlet chrysanthemum, it’s a red rose’ said Rosey. ‘And why did you call me Yonder?’
‘No Rosey. Scarlet, Chris and …’
‘Silly me, you’re right. Of course it’s a chrysanthemum!’
.
Ha ha… love this. Thank you for the smiles you brought this Saturday evening!
The pleasure’s all mine Corinne, thank you.!
I never think of clever stuff like that when I wake up. Quite clever…and weird.
It doesn’t normally happen like that! Cheers Denise
Hi Keith – fun … well done – something I’d never have come up with … but I couldn’t spell chrysanth …
Just enjoy the bulbs – beautiful at the moment … cheers Hilary
Thank goodness for Grammarly spell checker – I didn’t have a clue either! Off for a walk among the dafodils.
Haha! Entertaining post.
Delighted to have amused you Sadje, thank you!
You’re welcome 😉
Now that made me smile. What a fun play on words. I’m thinking Rosey appears often in your work? I like her!
At least 140 times over the past 12 years or so Jenne! She’s delighted to have made your acquaintance!
Englsih! It’s all Greek to me.
Haha, especially Rosey’s English! Στην υγειά σας Dora!
Yep. Cheers to Rosey and to you, Keith!
It’s funny, I was thinking of Rosey recently. It’s nice to have her back, getting things all muddled again. Fun read, Keith 🙂
She’s usually lurking somewhere in the background! I’m so pleased you liked it, thank you.
I did 🙂 and you’re welcome.
Very clever Keith, raised a smile 🙂
I hoped it might! Thanks Iain.
Surely you’re joking!
(Go for it)
And I’m not sure which of you is battier, but Rosey is much prettier.
She’s driven me batty, and clearly you’ve not seen me when I hit the town!
Oh that Rosey! So much fun!
…in small doses! Thank goodness for the miserly word limit!
I hear you!
Heeheehee! Rosey strikes again.
Like you say – again! Cheers Mimi.
Dear Keith,
Does Rosey need hearing aids? Or does she need to pay better attention? Cute story.
Shalom,
Rochelle
She only half listens so I guess it’s the latter Rochelle!
Your clever humor is on high power lately. Loving it!
That’s really nice of you, thanks!
