Here are this week’s questions:
1. Do you like snow? I like snow in small increments, and luckily, I live somewhere where I can do that.
2. Did you build a snowman as a child and dress it with coal eyes, a carrot nose, etc.? When I was able to go to the mountains when there was snow, I did build a snowman, but I did not dress it up because the trips were last minute, and we didn’t bring snowman-building supplies, lol.
3. Did you have snowball fights? Yes, there was one time when my sister and brothers were old enough to indulge in a snowball fight.
4. Did you have a sleigh? Unfortunately, no, I do not.
Gratitude:

In busy halls where whispers play,
Popularity shines bright each day.
Smiles are masks, hiding some pain,
Hearts grow heavy under the fame.
We chase the glow, wanting to be seen,
But true worth is found in moments serene.
While others seek what fades away,
I’ll cherish the love that’s here to stay.
Amidst the glitter, I’ve come to see,
True light comes from inside me.
It’s in the bonds that feel so real,
That’s where my heart learns how to heal.

Ban
In the quiet places where shadows lie,
Books are banned, but truth won’t die.
History fades when we turn away,
Let’s not lose the past today.
Guardians of knowledge, take a stand,
Protect the stories of our land.
For in the light of words, we find,
The power to shape what’s in our mind.

Laughing Along With A Limerick
Good afternoon, everyone. Here is a new limerick challenge for you. Your word this week is:
There once was a judge named Judy,
Whose love for fudge was quite moody.
Day in and day out,
Without a doubt,
When she ran out, she felt truly broody.
MAD
In shadows deep, a whisper calls,
The echo of a heart that stalls,
A quiet room, where dreams submit,
To the weight of loss, a silent deficit.
Yet in the dark, a spark ignites,
A flicker of hope in endless nights,
For every gap, a chance to fit,
To weave the light where shadows flit.

Tess’s Journey to Clarity
There once was a girl named Tess,
Whose thoughts were a tangled mess.
In her mind, doubts would spin,
She’d dream of a life within,
But she’s learning to rise and confess.

I cannot read minds,
Your thoughts like whispered shadows,
Elaborate, please
A guessing game I cannot
Win without the light of truth.

BATH
BASIN
BLOCK
The baboon desperately wanted a bath,
So he searched for a block, feeling quite daft.
He wandered through jungles, up hills, and through glades,
In hopes of a basin, where he could make waves!

TINSEL
GLITTER
GOWN
—
Sally was up for a prestigious award,
A moment of glory that she truly adored.
The ceremony beckoned, all dressed in black tie,
Excitement and nerves danced, like stars in the sky.
She needed a gown that would suit the grand night,
One that shimmered and glowed, a true vision of light.
Through countless stores, she wandered and searched,
But nothing enchanted, her hopes slightly perched.
Then, on the day of the event, her heart took a chance,
A gown in a tinsel color—oh, what a glance!
With each step she took as she slipped it on,
She glittered and sparkled; her worries were gone.
Right away, she knew, this was the dress,
A stunning reflection of beauty and finesse.
She’d be the hit of the ceremony, without a doubt,
In a world full of whispers, her joy would shout.
So, off to the gala, with dreams shining bright,
Sally stepped forth, ready to dazzle the night.
With laughter and cheers, the moment drew near,
In that tinsel gown, she conquered her fear.

Thrilling
Up, up, up, we climb so high,
The world below, a tiny speck in the sky.
Then down we go, with a wild whoosh,
Feeling like we’re riding on a flying broom.
Around the curves, we twist and turn,
Screaming with joy, our stomachs churn.
The wind in our hair, the thrill in our hearts,
This roller coaster ride, a true work of art.

JEWEL
EMERALD
RUBY
In a cave so deep, without any trouble,
Lay a jewel so green, the stunning emerald.
Its sparkle so bright, its beauty so rare,
A treasure so precious, beyond compare.
Next to it rested a ruby so red,
With a glow so warm, like the sun ahead.
Side by side, they shimmer and gleam,
In this magical cave, like a dreamy scene.
