This week LindaGHill’s #SoCs prompt is the word HAIRY. We have been told to use it anyway we like earnings extra points for using more than one meaning of the word, above all to have fun.
Well I have not gone for bonus points this week because a little Christmas story popped in to my head. As it’s Stream of Consciousness Saturday I just wrote the Yule Poem. Mind you I did start and finish with the prompt word …. So maybe I might earn an extra point.😉
Hairy Mary was so scary
Not a good look for a fairy
No one wanted her atop their tree
Not a pretty sight for children to see.
Cold and lonely, thrown in the alley
Mary sat making, of her misfortunes, a tally .
Ruby dog homeward trots
A delapitated form she spots.
‘Hello” says Ruby to the fairy
“What’s your” name, reply came, “Mary.”
“No one loves me” wailed Mary
“I am so ugly and so hairy!”
“Well” said Ruby, “you look fine to me.”
So Ruby picked Mary up
Took her home, kind hearted pup.
Curled up warm in Ruby’s bed
Happy, both after being fed.
Scary Mary not so scary
Snoozed in Ruby’s coat so hairy.
