“I know it’s in here somewhere,”
She said as she dug through her pocket
She pulled out some coins, some random keys
A gold chain and her grandmother’s locket
She set in the dish a wadded up tissue
A hair clip, a Swiss army knife
“I know I didn’t forget it,” she said
As she pulled out a drum and a fife
“Could I offer you this?” she said to the man
As she pulled out a cup of iced tea
The TSA agent sighed a big sigh–
“Ma-am, I just need your Real ID”
This week’s W3 Challenge:
Let’s send 2025 off with a giggle!
Write a poem of 10 lines or fewer that places someone—or something—in a delightfully improbable location. Think sharks in a bathtub, a dragon in a bar, or any unexpected presence where it clearly doesn’t belong.
I know, I know — it’s 12 lines, not 10 — but I was on a roll.
Hot Dogs and Marmalade 
Haha! Well done
That sounds like me in my younger days! hehehe
No worries, Sally – I can’t count!
Very funny, and thank you! Merry Christmas,
