Lack & Fool

Stating lack of time
Only fools miss Nature’s awe
Too busy to see

Linda’s prompt for SoCS this week…

Your Friday prompt for Stream of Consciousness Saturday is “bodily function.” Decide on one or write about a whole bunch of bodily functions. Bonus inspiration: here’s a website. Enjoy!

An Ode to all things Lavatorial

Our body does the strangest things
Sometimes it sleeps, sometimes it sings
By singing, I mean parping
Or slightly ruder, farting
It’s one of the things we have to do
Like eating and then going for a poo
And all the things that you drink
Wee wee time, another toilet link!
It’s not all lavatorial though
We have to sneeze and burp, you know
But there are times a burp can lead
You to the loo again indeed
Because you may feel the urge
The contents of your stomach to purge
And vomiting can come hand in hand
With that other function needing the pan
For if you’ve ever suffered D and V
You’ll be pooping constantly!

Ritu 2018

Catch ya later Peeps! Happy Saturday!

Sue’s #WritePhoto Prompt this week:

I love summer
No really, I do
Even though pollen
Makes me achoo!

The gardens look green
The flowers bloom
It’s time for shorts!
(I need to groom)

The sun coming out
The clear blue skies
As temperatures soar
To unheard of highs!

The sticky discomfort
As humidity settles
Watching sadly
As plants lose their petals

The sun disappears
Who turned out the light?
As rain starts to pour
From morning to night

The moans from us all
That it’s too cold or hot
We’re never just happy
With whatever’s our lot!

We should be used to this,
One form after another
After all this is
The Great British Summer!

Charli’s prompt this week:

August 9, 2018, prompt: In 99 words (no more, no less) write a story that includes an act of “peering from the woods.” Go where the prompt leads.

I think this warrants a sequel to last week’s yellow tent-ry! Read here for the first part.

Caught In The Act

“Well Annie, that was fun! We should make these meetings of ours interesting more often.”
Petey unzipped the front flap of his yellow tent, allowing for a slice of light to cut through the darkness of the forest.
He stepped out and stretched, post-coitally, opening his eyes to the beauty of nature.
And stopped.
What was that?
Peering from the woods, he swore he saw the face of his wife, Susan, eyes open wide in horror.
A rustling sound followed.
“Come back Petey honey, we’ve still got time.” Annie’s voice brought him back.
Petey feared his time was up.
