EXTRA EXTRA by Granny Annie

He had been busy all day
Cutting down the trees
The old man in overalls
With holes in the knees.

He came up from the field
His pet goat would FOLLOW
Both stopping at the STREAM
A cool drink to swallow.

The old man's fat jaw
Overflowed with SNUFF.
The spit blew into his HAIR
The rest wiped on shirt cuff.

They had gathered MUSHROOMs
To be shared with NEWS monthlies.
The neighbors they visited
Were all from other COUNTRIES.

The old man had knowledge
And did not need a hint
To remember the messages
Without them being in PRINT.

The visits had been welcomed
As he spread gossip happily.
A ROLL in the DUST for the goat
Then they returned to WARM FAMILY.

SUNDAY TALKING...11-17-2024

This November has been great so far. It has brought me lots of family visitors.  We are all busy making the plans for Thanksgiving that will be held at my home this time.  Everyone has an assignment and mine is to provide a pie and deviled eggs. My precious daughter has taken charge.

November's full moon is called the Beaver Moon, according to the Old Farmer's Almanac. The name was chosen because this is the time of year when beavers start sheltering in their lodges after having prepared food stores for the winter. This full moon reached its peak on Friday, Nov. 15.  It was absolutely gorgeous!

WORDS FOR WEDNESDAY...11-06-2024

Rudolph the red nosed Reindeer opened his parachute and landed in the surf. The rest of the crew unhooked their harnesses and smashed on top of Rudolph.  They landed unhurt but appearing like a totem pole.  Santa and his sleigh telescoped into the pearl opal green ocean. The fiery jets trailed behind and lit up the sky. Santa's ruins were black as clay and his head was severed. The children finally gave up watching out their windows. They never knew Rudolph and the surviving reindeer completed the delivery of presents that year.

SUNDAY TALKING...11-3-2024

 





Our weather has been crazy. We've had tornadoes and very high winds in our small community. One of my trees fell down on tuesday morning. My neighbors lost a great deal of their barn roof and then several of their outbuildings, but thankfully their home was not destroyed. Today my barn door blew off. Tonight it's high winds and thunder and lightning again. Thankfully, my poor chickens are safe in their pen. My girl Frankie wants to go outside and potty, but every time I open the door the rain scares her back in the house and she goes to the toy box and gets another toy. So before the evening's over, all her toys will be strung out all over the house. I hope she can wait till morning now to pee.

 PARLOR TRICKS by Granny Annie

Three of us hid behind the red curtain in the parlor of the church.  Yes, we saw it...the old rocking chair began to move. It not only rocked by itself, it began to turn around...faster and faster in a whirlpool.  Still no one could be seen sitting in the chair. Mary turned white as a ghost watching this event.  She was the only one of us who had never seen this happen.  She blinked her hazel eyes in dismay. 

The vision began to form as the chair slowed its rapid movement.  A very elderly woman with hollow cheeks, and pebble grey color was seen in the chair. The three of us ran out of the Methodist Church and darted to a near  cave, screaming loudly all the way there.

Twenty years later, our parents are still looking for us.
