Sacha Black’s prompt this week is more of a little game… Check it out here !
Anastasia sat there looking at the TV, listening to the inane ramblings of the latest politician to give his opinion on how he would run the country.
Every election year there was the door to door canvassing for votes, debates on the telly, the promises, yet no matter who got voted in, she was never any better off.
Seriously. Who gives a toss about her?
My words from that amazingly intellectual Heat Magazine I had next to my bed…
Gives
On
Year
Anastasia
Hope this was ok!

Oh, I had fun today! Lovely Ron gave our challenge prompt here.
The prompt words Shower and Play… What great words! Of course, there were so many ways we could go!
So I think I went all ways possible!
Haiku in 3/5/3 and 5/7/5 format, a tanka, and a Freku, just for Ron!
Duck – 3/5/3
Why shower?
Playing in the bath
Is more fun!

Sweat – 5/7/5
Feeling so sweaty
After a taxing workout
Need a shower methinks!
Ritu 2016
Innocence – Tanka
Watching children play
Laughing, gigging and happy
Is the greatest sight
Shower them with your love, not
Material Posessions

Heated Rainfall – Freku
Drops fall
Getting heavier
Heads turne upwards
Welcoming the rain
Washing away
The emptiness
Eyes lock
Raindrops caress
The face
Fingers trace
Their path
Chilled drps
Touching
Heated flesh
Body,
Outwardly cleansed
Thoughts,
Filthy…
***
Eyes meet, bodies touch
While cavorting in the rain
Temperatures rise
Ritu 2016
Phew! That was fun!

Ethereal glow
Left by those fairies and sprites
They exist, you know…

Sue’s Underground photo prompt this week for 99 word or fewer pieces, be it prose, poetry, humour… whatever takes your fancy! Check it out here.
It always intrigued me, that little hole… I wandered past it most days, whilst walking my dog.
Not really small enough to be a burrow of any sort, but not big enough to be some sort of manmade cave…
One day Toffee was running on ahead, as he did, and his lead started pulling tight. His barks grew more and more frantic, so I quickly followed him to see what was up.
As I turned the corner to the mouth of this mini cave, all I saw was the back of a little person, scampering away down the tunnel…
Think I may be channelling a little Enid Blyton here, I have been reading the Fairy Folk to the kids!!!
