Well, it’s been a minute since adding to this blog…anything signficant happen since my last post in 2021? Not much, just becoming a published author, twice! 🙂
Getting back into the joy of writing I’ve prepped an entry for Susanna Leonard Hill’s amazing Halloweensie contest which launched me on my path to publication back in 2020. Forever grateful!
This year the words required are WINGS, SPELL & FOG and of course in under 100 words! Entries aren’t due until October 29 so am I early in posting this? YES. But will I also forget to post this? Also, YES.
Here is my entry:
FROG FOG
By: Jocelyn Watkinson
Word Count: 93
Way down in a soggy bog,
there lives a farty froggy-frog,
whose tummy’s cursed with noxious fog,
owed to that witch’s spell.
Trick-or-treaters dare to pass,
they wade through all the long, tall grass.
BEWARE of froggy-foggy gas!
They all begin to yell. AHHHH!!!!
Their noses run, their eyeballs sting,
they toss each broom and fairy wing,
start sprinting from the toxic thing,
a wretched, deadly smell.
They trip and fall on unearthed roots,
some even lose their pirate boots,
they spill and scatter all their loot…
…all caused by a froggy’s toot!
