Chasing Beaver

What's that doing here?
Paddling hard we can't get near
 Almost there!  Get that rat...
How's he make his tail do that?
The message Go Away was very clear.

A Limerick For Tess

George Tooker, self-portrait

George was a painter of trapped people with sad faces
He wrapped himself in anxiety and ignored the graces
His portrait with a shell
Told his story very well
While his act of art became quite efficacious

Max And The Cat

Midsummer Night's Melancholy by Michael Sowa
The dog watching from across the alley only wanted to play
but the cat, being a cat, kept himself turned away
window to window Max took the leap
safely landing on his feet
but the uppity cat just ran away

Limerick in Yellow

Time again to gather your creative words
and enter them at Tess's Place, Magpie Tales.
Read the entries.  Lots of good writing going on.
Sick Woman, 1665, by Jan Steen

There was a young lady in yellow
Who fainted as she lay on her pillow
The doctor arrived
Helped her revive
Oh, what a wonderful fellow.
