I Call Him Rocky

As part of James & Oneg’s Summer Writing Challenge Extravaganza, I was tagged in the Tag You’re It! Challenge.

*Pick a Vocal community and tag/nominate another writer to write a poem or 100-word micro fic about it BUT you only have 15 minutes to write!

I was tagged with the Pet Life community by Oneg.

Shiny

Spiny

Round and quiet.

Never wakes me at 4:00 AM.

*

Solid

Hefty

Calming to pat.

Silent Zoom call companion.

*

Unique

Vintage

Dependably there.

I hope you understand our bond.

I know it can be a shock

When you first meet my pet rock.

And the Officially (Unofficial) Summer Challenge Post with descriptions of upcoming Unofficial Challenges still to come.

And- what the heck- here's my unofficial #BookReviewHaiku Challenge information. You could do that and enter it in the new Book Community, couldn't you? Just add the #bookreviewhaiku tag to the subtitle, if you think of it.

Please let me know in the comments: Have you ever seen a pet rock (if you have, you are likely a Boomer!). What would you name YOUR pet rock? Do you enter unofficial challenges?
