So here I am writing a poem that is completely left field.
I am on vacation after 11 months of not taking any time off. That time was pretty well spent, nonetheless. But! It is definitely time for a break. Vacation is meant for everyone to come together and drink tea. If you don't like tea, then drink something else. Don't freaking cry about it. Laugh at the most ridiculous stuff. My brother muses over a laundry bag. Then he does a belly flop on the bed in our hotel room. Laughter emanates throughout the whole room. Only one person is laughing. Then everyone else laughs because the one person begins it all. My brother is moving back to Germany. My sister is moving back to Boston. And my butt is staying in the Windy City. Needless to say, I love it. 2018 has been pretty damn good so far. But the best part is not over yet. It will only get better from here. Life is full of stepping stones. Those that we can use to propel ourselves forward. That will help us get to our final destination. Welcome to the Burrito Lounge, where you can buy one burrito and get the second one for free.

From The Jazzy Island of Dinosaurs
Valpatic was in the storage room writing random sayings on the wall. Five minutes later, Jokie walked into the room, and he was a bit skeptical of what Valpatic was doing. It was pretty obvious that the velociraptor had just started his wall of random sayings. “How long have you been working on the wall?” Jokie asked his friend. “This evening.” “How many random sayings do you have so far?” “Five.” “I see four.” “I don’t remember where the fifth saying is.” “Then, how do you know you have five sayings?” “I just know. For the record, though, I drew a kid who sneezed his head off.” “Literally?” “Literally.” From The Jazzy Island of Dinosaurs
It was one sunny day, and all four dinosaurs sat out on the patio, drinking sweet tea, eating pizza, and living life as everyone should. The flowers were in full bloom. The wind was crisp and perfect. It was definitely a good day to tell jokes, riddles, funny stories, and whatnot. “I spy something brown,” Dacston started the conversation. “Is it outside?” Jokie questioned. “Indeed.” The three dinosaurs thought for a moment, and then they tried to make some educated guesses. “Is it a tree?” Jokie asked. “No,” Dacston replied. “Is it another tree?” Sammy questioned. “Still, no.” “A squirrel,” Valpatic replied. “Indeed.” |
