This week’s challenge is to write a story, limerick or poem on the subject of:
Favourite indulgences
Last week’s theme was favourite songs/music artists. They clearly inspire you. Some of the pieces are here, while you’ll find others by following the links:
At the ages of twelve or thirteen
What an innocent time that had been
But alone in the dark
With Petula Clark
My dreams became almost… no, can’t say that – it’s highly inappropriate.

Reblogged this on Campbells World.
Many thanks 🙂
Reblogged this on Keith Kreates!.
A king who’d committed transgressions
Found indulgences sealed his confessions
Some cash from his courts
Cleared sins of all sorts
While increasing the church’s possessions
Many thanks, Keith. Sorry my response is late, but you never fail to delight 🙂
Thanks, Esther. I’m afraid I’m in something of a limerick-y mood at the moment…
A Couple of Scones with Jam and cream
is my favourite indulgent dream
But it makes me quite fat
and I’m quite worried that,
I’m in danger of bursting a seam.
🙂
Very funny! Really enjoyed this one 🙂
Thanks Esther. It’s sadly true too, I’m currently trying to lose a bit of weight so no scones and cream for me. 🙂
Oh no! Poor you. Scones and cream is my favourite so I feel your pain!

There was a young lady who bulged
At home she would over-indulge
We were fully stunned
To learn she succumbed
After one more plate of O’Brien.
Brilliant, Anne!
Thank you kindly, Esther. I had fun writing my first limerick ever.
I will look for the next one, Esther. Thank you kindly.
