Souls wish to be free of misery
Scenes of things past, also
Sure my forgiveness will drive you crazy

  1. My Haynaku by Billy

    I
    Don’t hate
    Anyone except Froggie

    He had an altercation with pet Froggie this morning. Your prompt just brought his hate out. I’ve explained he should thank you for this cathartic (had to explain) therapy you provided. He feels better for it now.

    He also says you left a letter T out in the title…..Very observant is Billy……

    1. Don’t worry, I’ve already stepped back to my side of the fence 😉
      The prompts for this hunt were a little heavier than last so I think there might be more in your neck of the woods. I apologize in advance 😜💚

  2. You made me laugh at the “I’m Old” hay(na)ku and then you made me snort laugh with the Harrisham Rhyme! It is true that forgiving some people just makes them crazy! hehe!
