Rumors and Whiskers

Rumors, hearsay and whispers
frolicked midst a newsman's whiskers
    His wife told the neighbors
      ~ He no longer kissed her

Awww! How totally cute. If I want to kiss a hairbrush, I've got one at home. Hahaha! Bewhiskered, indeed!

Oh yes, news spreads faster through the grapevine, although the 'grapevine' is digital now!

Love this Gershon especially the visual picture in the first line - such a great line and I love the whimsy in the last line! Really fun.

Alright, Heidi. So glad you like it. Here's to warm, cozy indoor scenes, at least. Best wishes, Gershon

Clever and witty, Gershon! I wonder if he's kissing someone else? Enjoyed, my friend! Hugs, Carolyn
