OBSCURE SENRYUS (5)

Michael Edwards

 

 

A wardrobe crisis
All the clothing is missing
The mattress is bare.

  • dusk arising

    Oh my what a clanger
    The missing coat hanger
    and the dressing gown
    over a chair

    so deft was the gal with that scraper
    she's ebay-ing her previous wallpaper
    a skill not-to-be sniffed at
    it comes with a gift pack
    a weekend atop a skyscraper

    whats going on?

    • Michael Edwards

      Luv em da.

      There was a young lass in anger
      who ripped her dress off of the hanger
      the hanger got stuck
      right up her butt
      and now she resembles an anchor.

        There were two small boys from the UK
        It seems they were having a slow day
        They wrote every bad word
        That they'd ever heard
        And then had to hid them from Mother

          A fine write and pic M. It's Miss Berles fault. You hired her as a house-keeper and she put everything in the wash at once?!

          • Michael Edwards

            Including herself - she's now known as Tum Berles

            Wow this one tells me a story - not so obscure to my eye Michael - - and that artwork must be one of your best - Ooooh what a hue of a sky.

            • Michael Edwards

              They moved to the seaside - cheers Fay.

              Had to stop once I saw your artwork. Wow. Great coloration. Asense of beauty and peace leaps out at you. Terrific.

              Senryu - It would have been much worse if it had been the apple tree that was bare. - Phil A

                It's curtains for the apple tree
                It's dead in the bed
                It's no longer clothed
                Its leaves have all fled.

                Thanks Phil.
