There once was a girl named #Bonny,
Whose laughter was bright and funny.
With a skip in her stride,
She danced far and wide,
Bringing joy to all, sweet as honey!

Our babe was born on the Sabbath
as #bonny as the old wives foretold.
Her beauty made wolves out of men;
our treasure was worth more than gold.
Nana and my son were inseparable. My #bonny babe, she called him. They plotted preschool breakouts and outrageous candy heists. When she died I was devasted, but Logan said, "Mum, don't cry. She's still here."
Second sight? I don't know. But when I look in his eyes, I see her spirit shining. #vss365

bonny girl,
how you've grown.
from ribbons and bows
to mascara and guns.
hell bent to take over the world.

Her first taste of fame was winning the #bonny baby competition at Butlins. Her mum kept the cuttings, and the photos lived on the wall.
Throughout her childhood she knew she was special. She starred in every Nativity. Her smile opened doors.
Even the ones that should have stayed closed.

Men grin when I brush against them. Later, as they pat their empty pockets, they won't suspect the bonny lass on the crowded Edinburgh tram.

Ay, he was a #bonny lad. Quick in his movements, sharp in his thoughts, and pleasing to the eye. That's why they took him, my darlin' lass, and that's why ye'll learn not to be the same. It starts with the branding iron. Ye'll hate me for now, but ye'll stay. #vss365 (bonny)
Three men in kilts
What a Scottish delight
‘Til a huge gust of wind
Whips up a fright
Tartan goes flying
Up over waist height
No longer quite such
a #bonny wee sight.

A #bonny lassie
from South Jersey
working the poles
down at Club Double Boom
Torturing the naughty boys
with her hips shuddering thunder
Tells her legions
of love starved pilgrims
she's paying her way
through school
but truth be told
she gets off
getting paid to be a tease

A teddy lies on the bank of the Loch, lost and forlorn. I pick him up, sit him on a rock beside me, imagine, somewhere, a bonny bairn being carried to bed, fearful of a night alone. Together we look hopefully across the water Ted and I, patiently waiting to be found.
What time is breakfast?
Bonny faces gather ‘round
Growing fast like weeds

Bonny A bonny glow rises in the quiet glen, soft as dawn on heathered hills. It stirs the breath of wandering men, and settles peace where sorrow spills. A bonny face turns toward the sky, bright with hope no storm can drown. Its light holds fast when shadows lie, a steadfast flame in fading brown. A bonny song drifts through the air, clear as truth in open fields. It binds the lost in gentle care, and grants the weary space to heal. Bonny hearts endure with grace, strong in love, in kin, in land. They shape the world and hold their place, and mend the broken with steady hands.
Three great prompts combined today and not an adverb in sight!

Oh my #bonny boy, my baby dragon, how your breath warms my thoughts. You circle the fortress, impenetrable and closed to your fiery discourse. You scorch the stone and trumpet your latest declaration of love or war. I can never tell which is which. The terrified peasants piss themselves.

In addition to her charming personality and #bonnily cute appearance, it was Karli’s humble high intelligence that drew college guys to her like frat brothers to a pizza party. Some repelled, not knowing what to make of her, but the best ones understood and boldly asked her out.
My heroine

She: an alluring, bonny, industrious type.
Also: piqued by my patter, and receptive for more.
Thus commenced the highlight of an otherwise unspectcular day;
the night, blessedly, portended something new and exciting.
#vss365
Oh, the #precious, not a ring, a phone
'Twas the bane of my existence, too many calls, I was condemned to answer, and none would take it from me early
'Tis quiet now, not many calls, Gollum with the Ring on its screen, already cracked within 2 months

Apologies for repost. Typos.
Far off hillside painted a #bonny gold in the morning as the sun breaks the horizon. A misty verdant sight only a few days back, now don't go too close, or the reality will ruin spectacle. For rampant flowering #weeds hath conquered that lush hill.

Your kind comments about my cat, Bonny, are appreciated, as are your postings for #vss365. The breadth of your creativity inspires me and I am fortunate to have the privilege of reading you. I consider you all as the March 12 #prompt: #precious.
Little Marcia and I are the lab rats that will test if this portal can safely transport us across galaxies.
"If Scotty from Star Trek were here, he'd wish us a #bonny trip," I say, attempting to insert some levity.
Her face scrunched up.
"I don't know who that is."

Waves breaking over stone jetty under a cloudlit sky.
She looks at me,
eyes moonstruck from the craggy shore.
I pray I’ll never forget those shoreborn eyes,
which held me for many a night and morrow.
But the ocean turns hours to years and boy to man,
and my #Bonny is but a memory—
for land and sea, they meet but once.

Have you ever heard the words of thunder my Bonny child ?
The Words that stair the peach fur ?
Have you ever heard the words of thunder my young child ?
When the Gods take their thrones
And the lightning writes their words home.

#Bonny Prince Charlie didn't know what to expect when they presented his bride to him. He lifted her veil. A frog face stared back. "Ribbit," said his new wife. Charlie rolled his eyes. Well if that was the way his advisor wanted to play it...game on.

Punk Rock Kilgore Trout, whines: But I'm hungover!

PRKT, in a bad accent: IF IT'S NOT SCOTTISH, IT'S CRAP!
