It’s that time of year again, when I start to take weekends off from my blog, not totally, but enough to be able to spend time with my family. So, Backyard Buddies returns for Season 2 🙂

Sprawled across, in the forest, bare
Malicious, spindling arms, in air
Grasping at others, blocking the way
Uprooted reality, darkened and gray
Fingers, stretched, to clutch your being
No need to fight, there is no fleeing
From mist covered floors, invisible in night
That move, with an evil sense of delight
Ominous and vicious, this blackened place
Where things disappear, without a trace

No matter how hard she would try
She couldn’t get rid of her glitches
She’d waddle around, like ducks do
But eventually, wind up with stitches
Poor Matilda, was in need of a bubble
To keep herself from constantly falling
Today was no different than the others
This time, the poor dear met her calling
She tripped over her own two feet
Couldn’t upright herself, needed help
But all she could do was flap and weep
And let out a pathetic little yelp
When all hope had seemed to fade away
She looked up and saw him standing there
He extended his paw, to help her up
Matilda took it, without nary a care
Now they sit by the tree, quite merrily
No reason for either of them to groan
Happy ever after, they live, quite verily
Just two glitches, whose stitches were sewn

The Christmas tree was lit
Only one thing left to do
String together popcorn
To create the perfect view
I carefully threaded the needle
Making sure it was nice and strong
One by one, I gathered them
To make the strand grow long
There was just one problem
My tree was much too tall
I couldn’t reach the very top
Else I’d surely face a fall
So I sat down in my comfy chair
Took the big bowl, nice and red
Forget about stringing popcorn
I’ll just eat it all, instead
