This week we have been given ‘bucket’ by TJ for his household challenge. The only bucket I have at home is the bog standard mop bucket we all have kicking around! Not very exciting.
I then realised that I had made the ‘bucket’ bag not that long ago to keep my knitting in, but that had already starred in a haiku of its own, so it is time to think of something else.
We had to nip out this afternoon to get some bits from the supermarket, and look what we saw….yes buckets of flowers! Ok, they aren’t technically my household object, but I am going for poetic licence on this one!
Beautiful flowers:
Fresh, vibrant colours displayed
in dull, black buckets.
Nice one Judy. Well worked☺

Great idea for the challenge. Buckets of flowers sound beautiful! The sportscaster on the news this morning kept referring to baskets in basketball games as “buckets” in relation to scoring. It was highly annoying.

Ha! Yes, I am sure it was annoying as it doesn’t really fit the bill for baskets!

The pretty blossoms sure brightened the dull buckets. Come to think of it, buckets are not used as much in homes these days.

No, you are right. We rarely use one!

Hello, and thanks for stopping by. I am Judy, in my (very) early fifties and decided that life definitely gets more interesting as it goes on! I am a wife and a mum and have just finished University as a Registered Nurse, after having worked as an Associate Practitioner in the NHS. I am also a poet and the author of my debut book, 'Rhymes of the Times.' I love to laugh, and I love rhyming words too, so I joined the two together, and my book was born. I am currently working on another book in the series also. I am a prolific blogger and enjoy writing funny stories, anecdotes, and anything really that takes my fancy.
