Karen of Baking in a Tornado has joined us in this crazy pursuit, and promises us at least a poem a month - may we hope for more.

Jenny at Procrastinating Donkey who has been a faithful particimant, is taking a break due to her husband's recent passing from this world. Let's continue to send warm thoughts, good energy, and lots of prayers her way.
Be Nasty Day.
One day to be nasty, one day to be foul.
One Abracadabra Day - and not two.
You can't always be good and as wise as an owl
you can't always be tractable too.
One day to be nasty, but what will I do?
Put tacks on the chairs, and milk in your shoe?
Put salt in the sugarbowl? Rice in the cheese,
And pretend they are worms, pretty please!
Put a slug in the slipper, and an egg in your jeans?
I have loads of ideas, all funny and mean.
But I think I will wait till a day you don't think
And eat it up, hook, line and sink!

Smiling, while mourning that some people believe that every day is be nasty day.
SvarSletOh, they have to learn. One Adracadabra day a year. If you're nasty outside of this, you're in for trouble.
SletThank you!
SvarSletHahaha! Love it! Well done, Charlotte. Mine is along the same lines - great minds think alike! I'll post it on Diane's page when she has published her own poem.
SvarSletThank you. I'll be over and see.
SletThose are some pretty interesting ideas, glad you've decided to put it off, now the questions are who, and when.
SvarSletI unashamedly admit that I have partly stolen the ideas from an Italian song called Chiribiricoccola, and from Mr. Mysterious and Company by Sid Fleischmann.
SletSO CUTE!
SvarSletWe've been fairly warned. But now we'll be watching. Forever...
Yes, do watch out!
SletExcellent! Yes, once a year is plenty for this celebration.
SvarSletOnce a year, and were I still a child, I would be planning ;)
