Daily Prompts- Mind your language
Can you please be a bit more clear
Your use of grandiloquent words
And juggernaut phrases may make you seem
More in control of this sticky situation
But the fact is that using exotic language
Does not make it easier for others to understand you
It’s your long lost love, the desire to impress
You pet hobby to depress the pretentious by words
Lobbying words like tennis balls into the air
Whoops, there you go again with high sounding words
For the umpteenth time dear sir, please be clear!

Daily Prompts- Selling pitch
I am not going to tout to you
But rather respectfully ask
Can you come visit my blog
And check out my various posts
Some have pizzazz and a little flair
Others are just rants against the head honcho
I have been spending a lot of time and effort here
And I am hoping that with your kind attention
We can make a success of this endeavor, together
It may be the ladder that will help me climb
High in the blogosphere’s popularity

Stream Of Consciousnesses Saturday- 1 August 2020
Linda is the host of Stream Of Consciousnesses Saturday
Your Friday prompt for Stream of Consciousness Saturday is “more.” Start your post with the word “more.” Enjoy!
~*~
More and more people
Everywhere I see, yet some more
I begin to doubt my sanity the more I see
And yet, here they are, perfectly visible to everyone, not only me
What are you talking about, you can say
Have I bamboozled you with my strange ranting
Instead of more people being careful and cautious
I see more of them without care and precautions
Wandering about without a thought in their heads
Going mask-less, more and more!

Crimson Creative Challenge # 90- Windmills
Crispina is the host of Crimson Creative Challenge
CCC#90
~*~
My mind is flighty
Like a butterfly, it flits
From one thought to another
Sometimes I think that I have
Windmills going in my head
That blow my thought hither and yon
If you want to hold a long conversation with me
It’s possible that in between that dialogue
I would utter irrelevant and unconnected observations
And then you might agree with me that
I do have windmills in my head!

Thursday Inspiration- Leave
Paula is the host of Thursday Inspiration
This week’s theme is leave and the picture is below. Here is the song snippet from “If You Leave Me Now,” a 1976 song from Chicago.
If you leave me now you’ll take away the biggest part of me
No baby please don’t go
And if you leave me now you’ll take away the very heart of me
No baby please don’t go, no I just want you to stay
~*~
I’m going to pack my bag and leave soon
Home is calling me and I am exited to be going
The journey is long and tiring but I’m going home
I won’t mind the hardship because I’m going home
( For reference, check my SoCS post)

Daily Prompts- Facelift
She averts her face coyly
I am too old for you to smicker at
It’s just this recent project of mine
That has led you to a false notion
This facelift makes me look far younger
Than my years and so you think, I am
Do reserve your passion and ardor
For someone your own age young man
This arbitrary and sudden passion is quite misplaced
I am old enough to be your grandmother

“Take your hand out of the candy jar and step back real slow!”
“But….. “spluttered Noah, “I wasn’t doing anything wrong”
“You were trying to steal the candy from a baby and everyone knows how wrong that is”
“I was just taking a few, I was hungry”
“That’s what they all say when caught in the act!”

Daily Prompts- Teaching Grandma
He is a sweet boy
Precocious for his age
Knows far more about computers
Than I can ever hope to equal
He is always trying to educate me
I listen keenly, tuning in to all the technical lingo
Sometimes incurring his rightful indignation
When I fail to grasp a finer technical point
We move to our own space till he is over the mad
Something would tickle his funny bone and he would smile again
Back to teaching grandma computers again
