This is a game my sister and I play.
You think of 3 NOUNS and 2 VERBS
Then, you have another person write a story or paragraph using them
Okay…so who can write a story using:
NOUNS:
Freakishly long pinky finger
Lumberjack
Turtle
VERBS:
Giggled
Licked
When you're done...make up your own nouns and verbs for the next person :)
A lumberjack hastily walking the woods,
With his back fully loaded with... lumber. :D
And then caught his foot on a turtle.
He went to the ground with the lumber on top,
Put forth the hand
To fall on its palm
In the hope that the fall would stop.
But something unusual there was in that hand.
Something as long as a fleshy bony wand.
It was his freakishly long pinky finger
Which he painfully twisted,
But since he was a great singer
He giggled and licked it
Instead of complaining.
The man did have training.
The turtle... he kicked it. :)
My nouns: horse, tower, damsel
My verbs: hope, smile
A damsel drenched in her own desires,
rode a wild horse and crossed several forests
befor she reached the tower at the sea.
She hugged the tower while crying with a smile on her lips and hope in her heart.
My Nouns: Shepherd, Cigar, Apple
Verbs: Exasperate, Contemplate, Die
A shepherd, he had had a heavy journey.
He sat at the shade of a tree
And watched his little beings from the distance
While smoking the stub of a chubby cigar.
An apple fell upon his head,
He fainted,
And after a while he waked
To see an horror painted.
He could do nothing but to exasperate,
To desperately contemplate
His every little beings soon to die.
My Nouns: lily, spaceship, lovePS: I've just noticed that Ebonon included a third verb in the game, and I had used the three of them before realizing. I hope November pays a blind eye on this mild violation of rules. :)
My Verbs: smell, fly
"Oh, see, see, what's that flying" One excited voice said pointing at a tiny dot that slowly descended down from the sky.
"It 's a bird!" someone daid.
"It's a dragon!" another one said.
"No, you fool, it's a pelican's dirt!" another fool said.
Finally, one wise man spoke, "No, you twerps, it's a spaceship in shape of a lily."
The spaceship landed, and a peculiar smell gripped the atmosphere. The smell of love.
To be continued....
Nouns:- Computer, ant, silk.
Verbs:- hear, speak.
Behold the ant on the computer keyboard!
Striding from key to key
through every gap between.
The operator grabbed it with two fingers
And felt it slippery like silk.
He seemed to hear the ant speak
"Don't crush me! Don't crush me!
Just lay me down another's key
Or have, at least, a word with me"
Nouns: red coat, tomahawk, maiden
Verbs: fall, cook
That was one wonderful bit of poem, Maximilianus. :)
-----------------------------------------
A maiden was cooking food in one of the houses. She peeped out of the window and looked at the gargantuan spaceship. Out of it, an alien dressed in a red coat holding a tomahawk, fell and came tumbling down the sloping entrance.
Nouns:- blanket, broomstick, ring
Verb:- sigh, giggle.
Thank you Nik :)
I too enjoyed your red coat alien story. Here's another one with your words:
Wife slammed the blanket with a broomstick
because filth and dust did make her sick
When suddenly her arms at swing
Made her slip her wedding ring,
Which flew away
And went astray.
Where may my ring be?
Where that I cannot see?
Wondered the wife in grief,
Searching everywhere,
To not find it here,
To not find it there.
She paused a while to giggle,
The ring was gone for good.
Soon after that... she sighed...
But why was her change of mood?
Nouns: knight, saddle, straw
Verbs: fear, love
Lol...Max...you were just being too humble...there was nothing funny in the red coat story. :)
----------------
"Booha, Cooha!" A voice rang.
The alien, got up, the tomahawk still in hands, turned his heads in the direction of the voice. What he saw was a knight sitting on a straw-coloured saddle tied on the back of a fire-breathing dragon.
The knight spoke in a thundering voice, "Ay intruder, what brings you on the land that we love? Do you not fear the wrath of the king?"
to be continued.....
Nouns:-baby, crown, seat
Verbs:- shrug, laugh.
