This story is one of several I have written for our
5-year-old granddaughter, Colette, for Christmas.
I can’t wait to read them with her.
Also in response to Missy’s Mad Challenge#069
and for Weekly Prompts Colour Challenge – “red”.

M.I.A.
Written for WTFAIOA Pick 3 #3.
Each week the inspirational list will
be comprised of 21 randomly selected
words; we must use at least three.
Here’s our list of words; I have used all.
The Weight
Written for Only Murders In My Mind
Weekly Writing Prompt #54. This week’s
inspiration is the photo seen below.
Gone Fishing
I Hated That Job Anyway
Written for Ovi Poetry Challenge 60.
‘Haste’ is our inspiration. Here’s my Ovi.
Haste makes waste, I’ve heard it said
Why get up? I’ll stay in bed
It’s August! The office is dead
Good day to sleep in
Push the snooze, catch more ZZ’s
How I wish I could make time freeze
Loll around doing as I please
I’m just so very tired
Phone is ringing off the hook
Guess I should go take a look
But instead I throw a book
My boss left a message
You forgot about the meeting
Future customer was seething
It’s too late now, he is leaving
You blew it, pal
Do not bother coming back
Forget your stuff; someone will pack
And one more thing, you’re fired Jack
Think I’ll catch forty winks
