She is not amused
Out tricks didn’t work so well
Mummy is irate

An amused machine
Sensing irate gamblers greed
No Jackpot today!

Sitting there smiling
Why do you find it funny
Seeing my anger?

TJ’s haiku challenge this week,
Use the photo or the words, or both to create a haiku.

Fill & Depth
I wish I had more time, but today, only one from me, using the words, due to a busy weekend!
The depth of my love
My heart filled with joy
Us, forever one.

Sue’s back with her #WritePhoto Prompt this week!

“Now this,” tour guide Tim indicated, “is the famous bed!”
His words were greeted by coos of excitement and eightened whispers in all manner of languages.
The 20-strong group were the fifth he’d taken around today already.
“Yes, here is the bed where Snow White lay, after consuming that poisoned apple, given to her by her Evil Stepmother. Here is where the seven dwarves congregated each day and night, keeping watch over the body of their beautiful princess. And here is where the Prince came to kiss her, and wake her up!”
Cue the phone cameras and proper cameras clicking, image after image from all angles.
“What, you want to lay there and have your photo taken? With your own Prince Charming kissing you? Hmm… Well this is a historical landmark… I’m not sure I can bend the rules. If everyone was to request the same, the bed would be worn away by now. But, if you are prepared to make it worth my while…”
Pocketing another £50, Tim happily clicked photo after photo. Several others came over and requested a similar photo opportunity in various forms of Pidgin English
He led the group back to the coach half an hour later, patting his pocket… Nice little earner! These tourists are so stupid! Don’t they realise Sleeping Beauty was just a Fairy tale!
And that bed? Just knocked up by a friend of his! Or so he was told. Who cares, anyway? He was making a packet with this Fairytale tour!
Unbeknownst to him, seven pairs of eyes followed him back, peeking from a nearby bush…

Sacha has another prompt for her #Writespiration challenge…
Your challenge is to write your story using the weekly theme/prompt and write it in just 52 words…. EXACTLY, no more, no less.
The secret you just discovered…
I wasn’t meant to see that…
There I was, opening up my payslip, knowing exactly what it would contain.
Such a relief that payday was here, I was short of money again this month.
I had to do a double take!
The name… not mine…
Ooops!
Hmmm, so that’s what she earns…..!

Colleen has been running a poetry challenge and I have been unable to take part previously, but I felt I should give it a go today!
The prompt words;
The perfect partner
A mix of sugar and spice
Sensual sweetness
