Thank you to Grandma’s Goulash for hosting Succinctly Yours, the game in which we are challenged to use the picture to whack a story to pieces at 140 words or 140 characters or under. The bonus word this week was “alert.”
Many
people are shocked to find out who the Grim Reaper really is—an outdoorsy gal
who weaves baskets in her spare time, yet always remains alert for the next
soul. 135
While Pauletta
sang “Bringing in the Sheaves,” she found it hard to remain alert. All she
could dream about was getting her hook into Antonio. 118

ReplyDelete...ooooooooooooooohhhh that first one is true Howl-oh-een material!!! YAM xx
Isn't today All Souls Day? Or the end of Day of the Dead or something? LOL. Thank you so much, YAM!
DeleteThe first one was wicked good and the second one made me burst out laughing. You are fantastic at these memes.
ReplyDeleteI really appreciate it, Linda!
DeleteCan't choose between the two this time. Both are exemplary!
ReplyDeleteI think I saw that gal creeping along the lover's lane. Lost her hook, as I remember it, which was later found dangling from the car's door handle...
Your comment made me laugh and laugh. I believe she moaned, "Whoooooo's got my arrrrrrm?" as she crept.
DeleteBoth are wonderful, Tammy, as usual. Should Antonio be worried? Should he watch his back?
ReplyDeleteYes. And according to Val, his front and especially his side door.
DeleteI hope you weren't meaning that literally; lol; a real hook into Antonio.
ReplyDeleteAm I horrible that when I look at that picture, all I see is the scythe? In fact, at first glance I thought she might be holding an amputated arm. I am a sick woman.
DeleteLove them both, as always, Tammy, especially the first one. So glad to know the Grim Reaper is an equal opportunity demon! We have now been "alerted."
ReplyDeleteHee hee! Love it. Thanks so much for stopping by, Theresa!
DeleteI'll never hear the phrase "grim reaper" again, without thinking of this. Just wonderful! I loved your comment about the amputated arm. I think you may be my long lost sister! lol
ReplyDeleteI'm pleased to have you as my sister. We'll sit next to each other at the old folk's home and make up micro stories to entertain each other!
