Monday morning writing joke: “Writer Extraordinaire”

There once was a writer extraordinaire

For the less talented he did not care.

Then one day

His ghost writer gave him away

And credit with his mom he had to share.

Photo finish (and poem) Friday: “Rain”

Rain and rising water

As I sit out in the rain /

Pondering life all the same /

A pond appeared across the way /

Growing larger and larger throughout the day /

Until the time when night fell /

And I could not tell land from water very well. /

But as the sun rose, I will vouchsafe, /

It’s no fun being in a watery grave.
