The Joys Of Winter
There’s nothing quite like a tough mental challenge. And I sure had a good time with this one, prompting me to write something (in my case, a limerick) using these three words: phone, stumbled and windy.
The Joys Of Winter
By Madeleine Begun Kane
It was windy and snowy. I stumbled.
Then I fell and my keys and phone tumbled
And slid down the ice.
I yelled words not so nice.
“How rude!” an old passerby grumbled.
And speaking of winter, it’s almost time to start worrying about your office Christmas party.

lol… the fun part is imagining the “words not so nice”
Very fun.
It was a bit challenging this week. Halloween inspired me though. :)

Was a good week for phone tumbling and stumbling
Vivid images – I can almost hear the ‘not so nice words.’ Fun!
At least the “words not so nice” may have warmed the air a bit!
there is just nothing outside of your realm is there?????
Thanks paisley. I guess that’s the up side of ADD :)
Thanks everyone!
Giggle, snort, howl.
I havent caught a limerick in awhile.thank you, it was clever and so much fun to read.
i’m with gay…so eloquently spoken…
Ouch! Loved that!
Thanks everyone!
I too, wondered what the “not so nice” words were.
And honestly, didn’t you kind of just hope karma gave the passerby a kick in the butt? ;-)
Sorry, I can’t reveal my “not so nice” words because my elderly parents read my blogs. :)
HAHAHA!! Very good and not a rude word in sight.
I love a good limerick – it’s such a satisfyingly neat form!
I would have been very concerned about my phone. And how many people had seen me, of course :)
Just like an old passerby to say what’s on his mind. Nice job with the 3WW. Thanks for you kind words at Poefiti. Keep up the good work.
