Lillian invites us to lighten up and get a bit silly at dVerse poets’ pub tonight 🙂
did you ever leave cell phone behind,
family must ring your number to find?
did you ever blow gum bubble in space,
stretch it bigger till it burst in your face?
did you ever play three gruff goats billy,
game with granddaughters giggling silly?

I’ll never forget the time I popped a bubble and the gum stuck so hard to my face it actually peeled off some skin with it when I picked it off. Almost looked like a burn.

Whoa, that’s serious bubble gum !
May 05, 2020 @ 19:42:07
right?!?!? That was so long ago, it probably had some chemicals that have since been banned! Lol!
May 05, 2020 @ 20:49:01
Ha!

No grandchildren or farmers involved, but guilty on the first two counts…(k)

Great to be silly with your granddaughters. Then you find they’ve grown up and you haven’t.
May 05, 2020 @ 06:41:58
LOVE that…so true! Thanks, David.

Yes, she does…they all do!
May 04, 2020 @ 21:03:26
I did!! The three billygoats gruff was one of my favorites!
May 05, 2020 @ 06:39:23
Yes, I play as troll under the bridge of ladder to slide…they slide away!
May 05, 2020 @ 08:11:29
So much fun!!
May 04, 2020 @ 20:24:59
I remember wanting to blow a big enough bubble to burst in my face, but I could never get it big enough.
May 05, 2020 @ 06:37:34
You just need a bigger wad of gum, Frank!
May 04, 2020 @ 19:43:21
