Night Time Trip It's midnight, a hunger digs at the pit must be time for a nighttime trip quietly making my way to the frig I trip on a branch, a leftover fort of a sort meant for the kids I hop on one foot, hold my toe and try not to scream I hear the sound of ice cream calling my name... I feel no shame! I slowly regain my sense of direction and go for the gold almost to the mark, my cat dashes past he swats me with his claws I cut a flip and land on my hip Gritting my teeth, I drag myself on the floor still desperate for the goal through clinched teeth, I whisper cat, you'll not see your ninth life tomorrow you die! As I pick myself off the floor with only minutes to spare I hurry to feel the thrill... ahhh...ice cream is my fantasy! BloomingRose |

BloomingRose, sounds to me like you've got your own Olympics going on over there. I enjoyed it. Dee |

Butterflies, Mint sounds good too! Dee, I feel like it's an ongoing Olympic game, or maybe it's more like a circus here sometimes, with 2 Cocker Spaniels, a rather fat Siamese cat, a lab (thank the lord she lives outside), 2 kids...eeks! no wonder I need my night time fling, (of a sort that is) ![]() |
