Stupendous Soliloquy
I’ll have to Amend-us
or make us Beauteous ,
but that would be Contentious.
I’ll try not to be Devious,
because then you’d be Envious.
I’m never facetious,
but sometimes I’m Grievous,
while at the same time Hilarious
which could be Insidious,
and could even be in-Jurious,
getting us all Kantankerous.
It’s getting a bit Laborious
without becoming Memorious,
which is always Notorious.
Sometimes it seems Obvious
though a bit Pompous,
and certainly Querulous,
which makes me most Rambunctious.
This all started with Stupendous,
though it’s getting Tenuous
and a bit Tedious.
It could become Ubiquitous,
which would seem Victorious,
or at least Villainous,
which could encourage Wanton-us,
and therefore more X-uberousness
from Youthfulness
with Stupendous Zealousness !!!!!

Prompt suggestion from the “Writing Works Wonders
Creative Prompt Journal”)
(Prompt: The word Stupendous)

A stupendous crash echoed with vibration.
What could be this iteration,
At four a.m. in the wee hours of the morn?
Looking outside, we saw no storm.

Across the tar driveway there is a hill,
Where towering tall spruce tree stand still.
One on the end had tumbled across,
The driveway in front of the car, fortunately no loss.

Dear Echo and Dust Bunny,

I am a masked lovebird and am nearly five years old. I am very
colorful with a blue body, gray wings, white chest, coral beak, black
face and purple tail. Not to put too fine a point on it – I’ve often
been told that I’m stupendous. . . . .

Sincerely,
Buddy
