Frog Applause by Teresa Burritt for January 18, 2021

I’m sorry, I can’t seem to nest any remarks in response. It’s the gospel truth, mark my words; I do have lukewarm response.

Hang in there slugger. Just make contact and you’ll get a ribby.

Aren’t those the tombs of the Mamelukes?

…you know what I call this observation?…

…Monday…

…and all of your troubles don’t amount to a hill of beans…

…when you’re looking at a bunch of goo…

…that used to be your best friend’s…

… Arsenic and Old Lace…

…“Come in, Dr….

…This is the home of my youth”…

…wait!…

…that’s where I heard this before…

…my offensive line coach in pee wee football…

…just,’Wait ’til next year…

If I come across one of them murder hornets, no warm edges, just a streak of me leaving the scene.

The buzz around town, is they’re combing the edge of time to see if they’ve softened at the touch! Bee carful though, you don’t want to be late for tea……

I have never been necessary. I’m just here for the cheese curls.

I am filing charges on that cake. Seems there is a roller-dex for filing and dy-no-mite for charges. That is no cake Mr., it’s a hornet nest, pour gasoline on it and lite my fire.

The secret of Roswell, New Mexico is finally revealed.

Yes, my secret’s out. My name is warmluke, and my edges are exceedingly dull.

Oh beehive yourself.

Is Warmluke related to Hotboiling …?

I may not be necessary but I’m sufficient.

Behold … the horned melon nest (aka the African cucumber) being surveilled during harvest …!

And that is real size of that wasp nest. And they are hungry.

Those hornet are master builders. That can’t be denied.

Busy, busy, busy as a bee, with my warmluke dull factory…

Resistance is futile. You will be assimilated. Upside, HiveFi is top notch, and every room has a view. Oh, and the pollen, sooo much pollen…

Well, of course you do!

Who ever heard of necessary dull warmluke edges?

Now, back to the hive, where I have some serious nesting to do….
