Xena’s Poetry and Thankful Thursday

Thanks to Angel Brian who is hosting Thankful Thursday as well as Angel Sammy for the fun pictures every week. 

Xena: Me and Chia…
Chia: She means Me and Xena…
.Xena…have collaborated on this poem. That means we worked together on it.
Chia: At her insistence, we tossed a coin, and she insisted on going first. Not quite sure that’s how it works. Anyhow, she does a line, then I do a rhyme, BOL! That rhymed! Here we go.

The Weird House Poem by Xena and Chia (Chia and Xena)

X: Is this a house made of marshmallow?
C: If so, it makes a comfy bordello.

Xena: Do you even know what a bordello is, Chia?
Chia: No, but I looked up rhymes and it was listed. Thought I’d give it a shot.
Xena: OK, let’s keep going…

X: Or did a dog grow and turn to stone?
C: In bed at night you can hear it moan!

X: Or an aardvark who grew big and white with age?
C: Whose Mom gave it a roof, t’was too big for a cage.

X: Whatever it is, I’m not opening that door;
C: You might get clobbered by the resident whore.

Xena and Lucy: CHIA!!

Chia: Ok, ok, OK! I’ll try something else. Go ahead and repeat your line, Xeboo.

X: Whatever it is, I’m not opening that door;
C: Though it might be stuffed full of dog treats galore!

Xena: First, I’m thankful the poem is done. Now for The Big Thankful…we’re all very thankful that Helene didn’t visit us and rip our house apart and flood our yard and maybe kill us all and, and…*hard panting*

Lucy: Xena! Calm down…take a deep breath. Now let’s count to 2…

Xena: Thanks Luce. Let’s see. I’m thankful my folks are back and I get to cuddle with Mommy every single night.

Chia: Hey, Mom and Dad said they’re thankful for what they’re calling a Miracle. The outside sliding door to the porch fell off its track real early Tuesday morning, like at O Dark Thirty, and Dad didn’t notice that it was laying in the yard when he let us all out. He said it was a Miracle that I didn’t run off.

Lucy: Why didn’t you? You always do.

Chia: I’ll never tell.

Lucy: I’m gonna go take a nap.

  2. No, no, the door fell down, it didn’t run away. It was ME who would have been the runaway but I didn’t run away and that was the miracle. Why does everyone think the door ran away? Chia
    Xena: Be nice, Chia. I know it’s hard, but try. Miss Monika is our friend.
    Chia: Phthhhh

  3. Bravo bravo

    I agree Chia if it rhymes that is what I thought too.

    Xena: Do you even know what a bordello is, Chia?
    Chia: No, but I looked up rhymes and it was listed. Thought I’d give it a shot.
    Xena: OK, let’s keep going…

  4. Well as always you all managed to come up with an amazing poem for this week’s wacky photo of the marshmallow/expansion foam/whipped cream/shaving cream HOUSE! BRAVO!!!!!!! You outdid yourselves. I’m also glad that you have your sliding door back and that it didn’t run away from home when it had a chance to.

    Hugs, Teddy (and Mom Pam too)
