Petite Pen~March 7, 2023

There’s something going around, and it’s invaded our household. My littlest one has been battling a bug, and so it made me think of this brevity inspired by science, but totally on the silly side. So, if you also feel inspired to spread some cheer, join me in penning some brevity, 25 words or less, to a microscopic image of your choice. Be sure to tag it. #petitepen and ping us back here if you make your own post.

Happy, healthy Tuesday!

Delightful Disease

He bleeds sunshine,
spreads rapturous, yellow sickness.

But, I’m inoculated.
Can’t catch cheery mucus,
contract blissful smiles,
incubate in his euphoria.

I'm autonomously immune.
