Chewed on cherry, his tread weary
Discard the jacket, load the packet
Key in the ignition, full of trepidation
A brunt, a grunt and then a crack
Fearful and afraid to back track
Out pops the worry, late for the ferry.

Fun post. Late for the ferry - who would have guessed! Like it!
whadda poop of a deal...awesome post 2 the prompt!!!
sometimes i think you should combine your love for children and your written words... i bet you could write some lovely children's poetry... this one is full of the proper spark for that!!!!
I love a surprise ending. I like the line 'a brunt, a grunt and then a crack'.
Didn't see the missed ferry coming. That's the way a bad day can start. Have a nice weekend.
love this play with words. your foul was anything but! :)
Hi UL. Reading this introduced me to Friday Five. I immediately grabbed the words. THANKS for the inspiration.
Loved it to bits you clever poet you!
Hate when that happens; I actually missed the bus this morning, and some other kid's mom raced through traffic to get me to another one.
VERY Clever! Loved it!
Very Clever.
Great twist with the ending.
Nice touch. Though I'm not really pleased when late for real.
Must dash ...
great piece... I'm catching up on all I've been missing here and greatly enjoying myself... thank you!
Much big fun!
very clever and original post.
You did well for both.
fouled up, have you?
"a brunt, a grunt and then crack"
Sounds like a visit to the chiropractor is in his future. FGun read!
What a happy sparkling poem. Like the end late for the ferry
hey clever play with the words...how do you do it? :)
I was thinking the same as paisley. The whimsy of the poem made me wonder how'd you do with children's poetry.
