A tiddly tale …

for Six Sentence Stories where the given word is Tree.

 .

white b

.

Just look up there, swaying branches filled with delicate pale green leaves reaching for wispy white clouds as they glide ‘cross a sky of springtide blue; blimey, listen to me getting all poetic! 

You see that heart carved in that tree trunk, well I did that when I was twelve, and the initial K is for me, obviously, and the S is for … please don’t laugh … Celine.  

Well, how was I to know Celine started with a C, you don’t pronounce it like custard or cock-a-doodle, do you? 

I used to know a joke about an oak tree, a-corny one … sorry about that!

ZZZ (1)That woman beneath the willow tree*, well, she’s Willamena and I‘m wondering if she’s a witch, so I’d keep out of her way if I were you ‘cos I could well be wight, err, right.

Anyway, I’m going to sit over there and count ants, I saw three thousand four hundred and twenty-seven the other day and I only got stung fifteen times, you’re welcome to join me if you wish, it’s great fun!

.

*Okay, that’s not a willow tree but I’m pretending it is for want of awwiteration!

.

Thanks to Denise at GirlieOnTheEdge for hosting.

zI’m heading up North on Thursday to attend a concert by the André Rieu Orchestra and won’t be back until late Friday, so I may not have a chance to visit your blog until the weekend, please don’t think I’ve forgotten you!

    I can only imagine what Celine felt when she realized he couldn’t spell.

    A-corny one 😀 Very fun to listen to and read this one, Keith! It’s not a-corny one at all. Alas, it tis’ a great six!

    Big smiles, Keith 😁 I’m sure Celine would be forgiving about the ‘S’… it’s the “S”entiment that counts, right? Enjoy the concert!

    • Keith's Ramblings's avatar Keith's Ramblings April 23, 2022 / 15:23

      Absolutely true, I have no problem with people getting the E and I the wrong way around in my name – even I do sometimes!

      The concert was well worth the 600mile round trip thanks!

      • The Atomic Mage's avatar The Atomic Mage April 24, 2022 / 07:12

        Lol, true. I’m forever spelling my own surname wrong! 😁
        Glad the concert was good and worth the trip. An adventure for sure!

    (Knocked flat out unconscious by all the pinging about puns)

    • Keith's Ramblings's avatar Keith's Ramblings April 24, 2022 / 14:54

      Haha, sorry about the Liz, I’m no good a pun-ctation or pun-chlines, they’re difficult pun-dertakings!

        ‘Twas punderful, tho’!
