Bad Clams and a Nightmare about Passions

I was out at SEA, on the USS HopeS, off the suthern shore of Beki island,
that is, Capt Hair and me.
“Look it’s midnitesun” I said to Dr. Moose1
And like a Dark Stranger 1sick_lady appeared, like an inkedgoddess in a Nightshade,
“Honeybunch.” she said, “I’m having Nakdthoughts
about that icebox you have below.”She said like a Balladeer:
“Be an Earth Angel and get me a gemjop from the freezer.”
And like a true Gentle Spirit Sunshine said, “exhale, and get it yourself!”
Tiersdin fall from her eyes as she stared at the Midnitesun thinking of garysgirl,
Suetag.Out of nowhere it began to Snow.That’s when Marge Tindal, the Enchantress, asked where the ship was bound.“Huan Yi”, said James_A_Fraser, “Then on to the land of Mysteria.” A Romantic Heart and Goldenrose were on the main deck waving at the seagulls when Seymour Tabin asked JamesMichael if he had seen Susan as anwaarhassan and J.Samm passed by like passing shadows.“Ahoy” a voice rang out in EvocativeVerse2.It was Lighthousebob.We were very close to the shore of NewEnglandlazurlu.That’s when we all heard a loud wranx.
“Oh ~etrrnal child~!!” barbaraj screamed “What was that?”Elizabeth Santos said: “A Toerag or a Nan just rammed the ship.”But DavePage, Martie, and Kellie_Cantrell kept their cool, the three said in unison: “It is only miscsllanea letting down the gangplank.”

I haven't been into PiP very much over the holidays, but I just now popped in and was intrigued by your title ~ and besides, I always enjoy your poetry.

~ Well, I am pleased that I did! This was a treat and a half ~ and I was pleasantly surprised to see that I was part of your nightmare! ~ Hmmm, that didn't come out right! lol

May the coming new year be a joyous one for you and your loved ones.

Welcome to my nightmare? LOL This is great! *S* And yes... it does sound strange to say thank you for including me in your nightmare. LOL But... I'd rather that than be left out? *G* Delightful! *S*

clams caused that? lol, what a wild nightmare, but so funny! I can actually visualize this, as you've written so many pipsters into the scene so cleverly.

Always great to find a chuckle or two and this one gave many. Much enjoyed the journey of your nightmare in this creative piece. Have a safe and blessed new year and stop with the shell fish already.

LOl JL, I had to come and read this again.
It is so cute. And I can just see everybody
in this scene that you've painted with your
words. I forgot to tell you up there, but thanks
for including me in the fun.
