Limerick Fun.....

There was a young, nosy miss, Sue
Who seemed to have perished from Flu
But the same ailment that
Did away with The Cat
Was the reason for her demise, too!

There once was a naughty lone princess
Who tortured poor tadpoles with pinches
When asked "Why are you mad? Are amphibians bad?"
She shrieked "Too many frogs and no princes!"

Haiku 1: Gifts

Earth-pine aromas
Sun prisms on crystal lakes
Awaken my soul.

Fun Ballad: Sculptress of Quintana

Oh wond'rous strange phenomenon
upon Quintana Beach!
There mystic forms of sand appeared
from shore to sky did reach.

While gathered awed admirers 'round
the sculptures raw and wild,
The artist peeked above the waves
and flipped her tail, and smiled.
