Timothy Hicks Poet Footle

The Girl At School Drops Her Pencil

What's this?
Pure bliss



NOTE: Hey everyone ... so I've been pretty busy these last few days, with packing, cleaning up, setting up yard-sales etc., so I'm gonna take a short break from posting and commenting ... but in the meantime feel free to enter my very first contest, March of the Footle. Curious to see how it goes ... happy writing!

Laura Breidenthal September 28, 2016 at 6:01 AM Silly one! Bliss that the pencil offered ample distraction, eh? I love a good distraction. Always, Laura

Carrie Richards March 10, 2016 at 8:44 PM I thought I'd come back to your Footle page to thank you for my placement Timothy! Footles are such fun, I'm glad to have been honored in your contest! Thanks again!! Timothy Hicks March 10, 2016 at 9:18 PM No problem, Carrie. I thought your Driver's School poem to be very well thought out :) I enjoyed reading the diverse entries people sent in.

Paul Callus March 1, 2016 at 3:36 PM And did the knight, Sir Tim, dive down to pick it up for her!:) ~ I see that you're busy...will go have a look at your contest when I finish answering mail. // paul Timothy Hicks March 5, 2016 at 2:32 AM With anticipation and delight ;)

Andrea Dietrich March 1, 2016 at 3:25 PM hahaha. LOVE your style!! (I wonder if S.O actually got it) Timothy Hicks March 5, 2016 at 2:30 AM Not entirely sure ... you and Paul did though. The old "OOooops! Clumsy me. Dropped my pencil" gag ... hahaha.

Lin Lane March 1, 2016 at 3:33 AM Note to Tim: Your contest will go splendidly. ;) Don't mark your prices too low-people will ask if you'll take less. Timothy Hicks March 5, 2016 at 2:25 AM Good reminder, Lin. Always a lot of hagglers at yard-sales ... even for really silly stuff. "So it says 50 cents on the tag, but will you take a dime instead?" .... Crazy, if you ask me!

Brian Davey March 1, 2016 at 1:29 AM Have fun packing up and stuff and we'll be waiting on your return Timothy Hicks March 5, 2016 at 2:18 AM I'll be off and on --- still got two months before I have to leave the house, but it's good getting prepared early!
