Fauna Fashion
Fox in sox and cats in spats.
Dogs in clogs and rats in hats.
When pigs are on sabbatical,
they’re rather acrobatical,
so they depend on spandex suits
as well as stretchy rubber boots
to make sure they don’t skid and fall
when they’re performing in the mall.
In urban settings, it’s a blessing
that there’s more reason to be dressing
formally. Of course that means
a negative on cut-off jeans.
Cool cats are not satisfied
until they have been spatified,
and sequined tops and silken slacks
are de rigueur, as are scoop backs.
But, perchance, have you been guessing
the one bird not fond of dressing?
(His response you’ll find less quirky
when you hear that it’s the turkey.)
Prompts today are fox, sabbatical, negative, urban and satisfied. All illustrations are free images from the internet.

OMG. How could I have forgotten Little Duck? I’m a fickle Mama. He’s with Big Duck now so that’s my excuse.

Just finished tearing down and packing up my show, Laurie. I have half of the stuff into my house but I’m exhausted and have to rest up before I finish unloading and put stuff away. How did I do this for 13 years??????
