The Dog Was Having a Grand Time
~
Today's Prompt ~ First and Last
Today we will use the line...
THE DOG WAS HAVING A GRAND TIME
The rules are you must use this as your first AND last line in your write, with no changes...
The dog was having a grand time
Romping and dashing around
Scattering piles of Autumn leaves
(We had just raked into mounds)
Diving into the swimming pool
Now the beach ball has a new hole
Scrambling out to chase the cat
And piddle on the WET PAINT pole
And the clothes line gets attention
Such a tempting long long sheet
A skip and a jump
And a little bite
And a spin round the world is so neat
But hey! Is that Mum and Dad shouting!
Stop! Drop!
What a great rhyme!
They love my wonderful talents
The dog was having a grand time

Dodge Writes ~ Today's Prompt ~ Butterfly Cinquain
~
Grounded
Fanciful wings
Limping on wind-strummed threads
Connected mirrors of blue dreams
New kites
Like a watercolour jarlsburg
Flighty cameo space
Like fresh lanterns
Dali
