Seagulls Take Flight

Seagulls Take Flight 


Rose strolled alone on a warm sandy beach

as salty sea foamy waves crept to reach

net her toes as the wind rose 

She Jump from getting wet toes 

instead fell back on her butt with a screech



Beach bumming seagulls came flying around 

while Rose sat embarrassed on the wet ground

Plop! Whitewash flopped on her head

then up to the air they fled 

flapping, squawking, with snapping hungry sounds

Carolyn Devonshire Date: 7/16/2018 11:48:00 AM This was very witty, Eve. Would have placed higher if all the syllable counts had been correct, but I enjoyed reading it. Congratulations, Carolyn Login to Reply

Chris Green Date: 4/27/2017 7:26:00 AM This was funny Eve and fun to picture, though probably not so funny to Rose when that seagull sent her an unexpected gift. :) Best wishes in the contest. Login to Reply Eve Roper Date: 4/28/2017 10:20:00 AM Thank you, Chris, birds can be pretty messy....I'm not much of a tease or joker so it is very hard for me to come up with stuff that are funny. ~*
