💘Beth C Greenberg✍️ Cupid's Fall series

Always a bridesmaid, never a bride
You'd think it might mess up a person inside
But sweet #Harmony lives to add substance to sound
So all the girls always want Harmony around
Don't give her the spotlight; she thrives in the shade
Her color shines brightest where other girls fade

You got it, @musewithpen.bsky.social ! If it fits, it's legit. Occasionally you see people posting a "picture" of a longer story 🤨. Some writers use their characters artfully (to indicate falling or moods), many incorporate poetry. I love to write limericks, and they always fit easily. Come play!!

Jay quivered with fear on the edge of his seat
His blind date Electra quite anxious to meet
She thundered straight for him and loudly boomed HEY!!
He bolted like #lightning to get far, far away
(And I hear that poor Jay is still running today!)

Beautiful write ✍️

Blame not the author
For it is her characters
Who control the quill

That's one way of looking at it 😀

Daphne cried out for her father's help. Apollo was afoot; the nymph did not wish to be caught. Desperate to save his daughter by any means necessary, Peneus turned her into a laurel tree. #Spellbound by her roots, Daphne watched grief overtake her would-be lover. Two lives ruined forever.

Sparkly #jewelry attracted Elle's eye
Which then wandered to find the rich guy
Though both spouses wore rings
Elle'd not care 'bout such things
For to Elle, their vows didn't apply

Nice!

Well done

Creation's lesson:
First comes Evening, then Morning
Light follows Darkness

I partook in a #bountiful feast every day
That delighted my tongue and my lips
And now the remains of that bountiful feast
Spend their days on my bountiful hips 😐

Beware flying geese
Heed well their honking warnings
Of projectile poops

Where was this #splendor they spoke of, Maya wondered. All the world looked like a watercolor painting someone had crafted with too much water, too little color. Until the day she had her first #cataract removed, and she wept at the sight of her lovely daisies.

I know 😫

Fresh As a Daisy

"But he DOES love me!"
"He loves you not!" says Daisy,
her last petal shed

Can't wait!

Mom: "How's it going with the astronaut?"
Jess: "We're in an #orbital relationship."
Mom: "Oh! Is he going back to the moon?"
Jess: "No. Everything revolves around him."

They broke blackbird's wings
And expected him to fold
But his feet still worked.

Stanley soon realized his awful mistake
He screamed his wife's name through a torrent of ache -
"#Stellar! Don't leave me! I'm sorry!" he plead
But sick of his fists and his accent, she fled
Hopped on a streetcar and ended her strife
While Stanley lamented his sad wifeless life.

Love it

Gave them seed money
To build their AI empire-
The bots stole it all 🤖

Thanks for letting me know you enjoyed it!

The township of Tydes became #crazed
When they tilted their heads up and gazed
At their moon, whole and bright
Day by day and by night
But the Moon kept on shining, unphased. 🌜🌝
