The Dance of the Digits: A Millennium’s Challenge

M.A.D. Works
Three Things Challenge #MM2

Your three words today are:
DOUBLE
MILLENNIUM
SEQUENCE

In every millennium, a contest unfolds,
A challenge of wits, a riddle of old.
With treasures of fortune, you stand to gain,
But to seize the riches, you must use your brain.

A sequence awaits, so cunning and sly,
Its patterns obscure, like clouds in the sky.
With numbers that dance in a cryptic ballet,
You’ll unlock the mystery, if you find the right way.

So gather your courage, prepare for the test,
The thrill of the puzzle is what I love best.
For in solving the enigma, your fortune will bloom,
Double the riches, brightening your room.

Embrace every challenge, let intuition steer,
For in each step taken, your path will be clear.
In the dance of the digits, let your mind take flight,
In the heart of the contest, you’ll find your delight.

Laughing Along With A Limerick

There once was a chef with keen eyes,
Who crafted the best golden fries.
With a crunch and a taste,
None ever went to waste,
Now diners all rave and capsize!

Nerd

In the world of books and dreams,
Where knowledge shines like bright sunbeams,
With each page and every word,
Enjoy the joy of being a nerd.

Curiosity lights the fire,
A deep passion, an endless desire.
Exploring places near and far,
In your mind, you can be a star.

With glasses resting on your nose,
You see beauty in facts that others oppose.
The wonders of science, the art of the pen,
In a nerd’s heart, there’s always a calm again.

So let them laugh, let them tease,
In your own world, you feel at ease.
You use knowledge like a mighty sword,
In the story of life, you’re truly adored.

Celebrate the quirks, the things that you love,
In a bright universe, you’re a gift from above.
So, stand tall, be proud, let your spirit be heard,
For every dreamer and thinker is a wonderful nerd.

Charged Mischief: A Night to Remember

M.A.D. Works
Can You Tell A Story In…

At the spectacular party, laughter echoed as a deadbeat wandered in, his cat trailing behind. He stumbled upon an old, septic battery, hidden in a corner. With a smirk, he thought of its potential. “Let’s electrify this party,” he whispered, eyeing a crowd ready for mischief.

There once was a chicken with eggs,
Who danced on her wobbly legs.
With a cluck and a twirl,
She made quite a whirl,
And made all the other birds beg!

Laughing Along With A Limerick

How was your weekend? Cold, if you live here in the UK! Here’s an apt new limerick challenge for the start to this week:

SNOW

In winter, when snow starts to fall,
It blankets the earth, covering all.
With laughter and cheer,
We build snowmen near,
And sled down the hills with a call!

POST

In silence where dreams are made,
It is on, a challenge laid.
With pen in hand, let’s start the run,
Now who will finish this poem first, fun?

Words move like shadows, quick and bright,
A mix of ideas that spark delight.
Each line a step in this journey we take,
As we chase the muse, both real and fake.

Let our thoughts soar, let our rhymes connect,
Dive into the well of what we reflect.
Time is ticking, the moment is here,
To share our feelings, loud and clear.

With courage and heart, let your art shine,
Together we write, our thoughts align.
So, share what you’ve crafted when your poem is done,
In this race of ideas, we all are one.

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.

Larry the lawyer can tell no lie
His honesty shines, you can’t deny
In the courtroom, he stands so tall
His integrity admired by all

With every word, his truth is clear
Clients trust him, without any fear
No deception, no deceit in sight
Larry’s honesty is his guiding light

Withdraw

In moments when the world feels too much,
I retreat from everyone’s touch.
No calls, no texts, no words to say,
I seek solitude to find my way.

I withdraw to my quiet space,
Where I can find my peaceful place.
Alone in my room, away from the crowd,
I recharge my soul, and think aloud.

So if I don’t answer, please understand,
I just need time to lend a helping hand.
It’s not about you, it’s about me,
Finding my balance, to once again be free.

FOWC With Fandango — Outset

From the outset of this friendship, I knew it was going to be special
A bond so strong and true, it felt celestial
Now I need to cherish and nurture it with care
For your presence in my life is beyond compare

Now that you are in my life, I don’t know what I’d do
If you were no longer with me, my world would be askew
Your laughter, your kindness, light up my every day
I’ll treasure our friendship in every single way

Hereditary

M.A.D. Works
Hereditary

Hereditary is the word some fear
For it carries the weight of the past
A legacy of triumph or despair
Passed down from generation to generation

It holds the power to shape our lives
In ways we may not fully comprehend
Yet within its grasp lies potential
For growth, for change, for understanding

Embrace the hereditary with knowledge
Seek to break the chains of negativity
And pave the way for a brighter future
Where hereditary holds promise, not fear
