I feel safest of all
I can lock all my doors
It’s the only way to live
In cars”

Goldilocks and the Three Yellow Lorries

Once upon a time, there was a little girl named Goldilocks. She went for a walk in the neighbourhood. Pretty soon, she came upon a parking lot and noticed three yellow lorries.

She stepped into the biggest one:

“This lorry is too hot to handle” she exclaimed.

So, she hopped into the middle lorry, and sat behind the wheel again:

“This lorry is too passe,” she said

So, she tried the smallest of the lorries:

“Ahhh, this lorry is just right,” she said happily, turned on the engine, and off she went!

Ode to My Little Car for SL-WEEK 42

“Good things come in small sizes”

Ode to My Little Car

It was a tiny little thing
Not the prettiest of the lot
The name had a soft ring
Almost like a plot

Fiesta…
Siesta…

Round and round in paces
Could see the look on others faces
‘Surely that is not the car to buy’
‘To her money she would kiss goodbye’

Trying it on for size I did
Smiling like a little kid
Spite what others may have though
This car was surely bought

It wasn’t quite what expected
Less is not more, had to respect it

Tempted by a car with muscle
The salesman tried to hustle
Something made me turn to look
The little car had gotten me hooked

Back and forth I went
Trying not to get bent
It was calling me I could hear
Trying hard not to get near

But
Fear not
Reason won in the end

After all
The muscle car was too tall
And lets face it
I got hitched

The tiny car was kin
All is well in the end

Lesson learned: Think big, buy small!

“As far as my favorite sites, I do a lot of mundane stuff on line because I travel so much” Bruce Campbell

Shadow Play

Shadows in play
On the walls they display
Trying to make heads and tails
But all attempts fail
Searching for a clue
Is very hard to do
Like a needle in a hay…
…stack
You cannot get a fact
Of what it really is
So please
Just enjoy the show!

Basking in the Sun

What could be more fun
Than scorching in the hot sun?
Yeah, this is the pun!

Moonlight?
It’s not even midnight!
But there it is:
Shining ever so bright
In broad daylight!

Turquoise

The cool and cold water
Inviting and soft as butter
So what if you feel like an otter:
Just dive in, it will get hotter!

Nightfall, across the horizon
The view mesmerizing
Even through a tiny peep hole
They call a window
