Prizes

The other day I got a flyer
Because I am a frequent flier 
And, as you have already guessed 
It said I was an 'honoured guest' 
In fact, the 'most important one' 
And a 'special prize' I had won 
I gasped out loud, my breath did bate 
And of course, I took the bait 
Must be

Premium MemberPrizes For Rudeness

Today I have prizes for them
Because they have been horrible
During my lunch duty

I am going to reward them today
They can choose their own prize
If they get the answers right

I will be very careful
To not call on those who have been exceptionally rude
Wouldn’t you?

Premium MemberYour Three Prizes So Great

We prize so much of the physical
which is really just pure vanity
thinking they'll satisfy your every need
but actually, it all questions your sanity

Our greatest gift is our health
what are we without being well
appreciate God's wondrous gift
look after yourself, protect your shell

Our greatest wealth is our contentment
just to know the peace of heart and mind
to be

Lady Lotto

I take another lotto chance, a whirl,
Lady Lotto, powers of a girl,
A woman's touch,
I don't ask much,
Lotto can well afford all this,
Winning a prize would be the blip,
Do I have a lucky hunch?
Taking a ticket after lunch,
Do any of us have psychic abilities?
Lady Lotto, please smile on me!

Premium MemberA Valuable Insight For Chronic Winners

Ever wonder what difference it might make
To relinquish a trophy for someone else's sake
Who needs a win in their life right then
When you have a history of getting the win?

Ever wonder what difference it might make
To give up what would be easy to take
To realize the other fellow needs to score
While you only crave one

Charley has taken his class hostage; he is seven.
His classmates are terrified of his out-of-control behaviors.
There is a perpetual glare on his face, he seems angry always.
He snarls and growls, sneers, and prowls around as they try
to do their work.  His work is on the floor where he has thrown it.

Merchants of the Word make writers write for prizes

Premium MemberDoor Prizes and Surprises

There are times the wind will blow a door right in your face.
Sometimes, a door is slammed by members of the human race

There are doors designed to keep some people in and others out.
Sam did not pay his rent; so he was evicted and the door was locked.

Mr. Riley rented the same apartment and was
