We have a story for you today. It will be short so you can be on your way. Yeah, it really won't take very long. This post can do no wrong. You will be ready to go soon. You can trust, not really, this rhyming loon.
There was a guy,
That couldn't fly.
But he had such pride,
That he jumped from a plane ride.
The plane was big.
The pilot danced a jig.
There was a pig.
Some woman even had a wig.
The wig was blonde.
Hard to see beyond.
I think it was cat hair.
Not sure at my lair.
My lair is great.
I'm sure you can relate.
I can't get enough.
It has all my stuff.
My stuff is fine.
Loved by the feline.
Towers and furry balls.
Chase those down the halls.
The halls are narrow.
Oh look, a sparrow.
Not the Captain Jack one.
How many of those have been done?
Do they need any more?
They are such a bore.
One and done would have been nice.
But can't roll those dice.
Have you ever rolled dice?
They can come at a price.
They can take all your money.
That sure isn't funny.
Don't you think it funny?
Funny in a rainy day not sunny.
The sun is shining too.
Or maybe that was yesterday's view.
Oh right, the report.
Well to make a long story short.
He jumped from the plane ride,
And then he went kersplat and died.
Didn't you love my short story? The end wasn't too gory. Hey, I made the long story short. What? I never had other things to report. I never jabbered on about this and that. Hmm long story short kinda fell flat? Shouldn't it be long story shorter? Leave out things like every news reporter. Some humans are sure blabbermouths in mass. Glad I'm not a long-winded little rhyming ass.
Enjoy your winter, smash a printer.

DeleteWhere is the blue guy and the ninja?
DeleteOff to play
DeleteAt their bay
The Blue Guy was asleep
DeleteIgnoring his phone's bleeping bleep and beeping beep.
Just shut it off
DeleteCan ignore and no scoff
I used to be scared to fly,
ReplyDeleteBut no way would I jump from a plane.
To cut a long story short.
I now love flying....my claim to fame.
Love your post Pat as always.
Yvonne.
Fly to the moon
DeleteCan sing a merry tune
With This Report We Go Long And Short!
ReplyDeleteTo see a long story that can be bought
It is not easy
To spin a story
Still a long story has to finish on the dot
Hank
That it must
DeleteOr it may rust
If you're polite, it's even worse because you have to suffer longer before you excuse yourself to leave!
ReplyDeletehaha yep, if you try to be nice
DeleteYou pay even more of a price
Flying blonds must have more fun!
ReplyDeleteThat they may
DeleteA smile day by day
I know people who wander even further with their tales.
ReplyDeleteDown and down and down they go
DeleteA headache may be in tow
At first I thought you were talking about that man, who stole money and the. Jumped from a plane and never heard from again...D.B. Cooper. I met someone who ump from a plane..his parachute didn’t open but he survived! He came in at an angle and had to be dug out his his legs went into the earth. He walked but not much else...too broken up literally
ReplyDeleteNope, DB Cooper is still out there
DeleteDamn, that would suck at any lair
you could probably tighten up that rhyme a bit
ReplyDeleteforgo a stanza or two
but you filled the space and had your say
nothing you need to rue
Tighten and snip
DeleteBut it was a trip
Well that was quite the story
ReplyDeleteIt was a little off track (haha)
If I roll the dice and lose
Can I get my money back
Jumping from a plane
Might not bring me glory
Won't get back your dough
DeleteNo returns at any show
You might go splat
Any glory in that?
Tell a story, make it long
ReplyDeleteMaybe even add a song
Make em listen or go to sleep
Wish that they were in the deep
Maybe they'll never come back?
DeleteCould be a win at one's shack
There are several enviable moments here, among them the ladies cat hair wig (that's a keeper) and the kersplat, The End.
ReplyDeleteSome just got in
DeleteHad to give a one off spin
He should've landed on one of those furry cat balls.
ReplyDeletePlushy they may be
DeleteAnd saved him from a smudge to see
What a fun post! My cat wants me to add you need more mentions of cats and balls to chase.
ReplyDeletehaha could stretch it longer
DeleteWould that be umm wronger?
Cat hair wig....now I know what to do with all the fur that flies around here;)
ReplyDeleteA business idea for you
DeleteCould make dough two by two
I'm a short story teller myself
ReplyDeleteNot because I tell short stories,
because I've been asked "Are you an elf?"
So you come up short
DeleteWith every daily report?
orlin N cassie....we tried rollin dice....did oh kay shootin em kleer cross de floor...trubull iz we never
ReplyDeletenew if we had ...7....
☺☺☺♥♥♥
Couldn't get a good look
DeleteFSG needs to help at your nook
I'm definitely not the suicidal type, but if I were, I would take sky-diving lessons, and then invite everyone I knew to watch my first jump. Then I just wouldn't pull the ripcord. Pretty sadistic, huh?
ReplyDeletehaha sadistic but fun
DeleteYou'd be remembered by everyone
I, too, thought DB Cooper made a stop
ReplyDeleteWhile the Cat was at the airline shop
No fun without a money drop
Best not to attract a cop...
Have to watch the coppers
DeleteCan sure be floppers
Kersplat is a little bit gory. And reporters do tell some long stories.
ReplyDeleteThat they do
DeleteGory, but there is no view
Nothing wrong with short!
ReplyDeleteShort gets it done
DeleteOn with the fun
LOL, sad ending? - http://www.domesticgeekgirl.com
ReplyDeleteKersplat
DeleteHow about that
Kersplat sounds pretty gory to me.
ReplyDeleteIt's not something I want to see.
Would not be a fun sight
DeleteIn the day or night
Well, that was quite the ending. Short, but not sweet.
ReplyDeleteNo sweet had
DeleteKersplat wasn't rad
Haha ~ I think you made the short story long!
ReplyDeleteI could snip snip it down to five lines.
haha snip snip like that
DeleteYou scared the cat
