Flash 55 - prick lee



your love is like a prickly pear
or
it
may
be
like an overprotective mama bear

you look all round, yummy and sweet
but
just
look
out
you’ve claws in your bumps and feet

you inflict on me lots of hurt and pain
must
be
totally
insane
‘cause i keep coming back again and again


Don't upset the G-Man by forgetting to post yours on Friday.

      Those little pricks and pinches are the learning experiences we need to enjoy the good times.

    If not for the painful times, the joyful ones would fall flat.

    Loved this Vanessa. Made me grin. Perfect photo accompaniment!

      I thought I go a little silly after the last two 55's.

    Ouch! Like the way you've shaped this one, so the longer lines look they are prickling out, and I love 'claws in your bumps and feet...'

      I'm glad people got the physical idea behind the shape.

    Cacti are such interesting plants, but I sure don't want them in my yard.

      I only have a couple on my porch because they are hard to kill. I don't have your green thumb.
