Felix, Feeling Famished

Felix, feeling famished, finished six thick steaks. Felix, feeling foolish, states, “Thick steaks stink.” Felix, feeling thirsty, swallows six thick shakes. Felix, feeling sickly, states, "Thick shakes suck." Felix, feeling fat, fumes, “Feckless, foolish schlub!”

Felix definitely has a problem with critical thinking! So fun, great alliteration and rhythmic movement. Love the repetition of the name Felix. It's like a pitcher practicing a curve ball in spring training! Six more weeks! Sending you a fervent festival of blessings filled with fantastical fulfillment of prayers! Felicitations of congratulations my friend!

Nina is sure to like yours because you employed good meter which she enjoys and you made a cute story out of it.

Yeah, if I'm not careful saying "foolish schmuck" I could get censored! Thanks for the visit, friend!
