Dribbles and Drabbles -

MAKING MUSIC

The clarinettist loved the drummer.

The drummer loved the bassist.

The bassist loved the percussionist.

The percussionist loved the trumpet player.

The trumpet player loved the vocalist.

The vocalist loved the saxophonist.

The saxophonist loved the clarinettist.

None of them loved the keyboard player who had slept with them all.

EDWIN’S JOKE

Last December Edwin, bored with being asked the same questions at his regular hospital appointment, thought he would have a bit of fun with the staff.

‘Name and date of birth?’ asked the receptionist.

‘Ebenezer Scrooge. Christmas’, he replied grinning.

She stared at him.

No sense of humour that one he thought as he took a seat.

But determined to make one of them laugh he gave the same reply as he continued up the medical hierarchy.

However, no one thought him amusing and now it is July and Edwin is stuck in the dementia unit pleading to go home.

HAIKUS -

The haiku is a Japanese poetic form that consists of three lines, with five syllables in the first line, seven in the second, and five in the third. Jacqueline has used this form to create stories (nano-fiction).

And I don’t have a mother

I’m a free woman
