Written for Trifextra: Week Ninety-Five. A sexy Limerick about working the wood begins after the image.

Wood Working

Tia the rebellious dryad desired a human mate.
Then she found a wood worker; it seems only fate.
His hard wood she enjoyed.
A big tool he employed.
His wood is often working, assuring her happy state.

Every weekend, The Trifextra challenge starts. This week, we had to find our own word and use it three times in a 33-word composition. My word was: wood. What better word to use is a sexy limerick! Here’s this week’s prompt for any who wish to join the fun: http://www.trifectawritingchallenge.com/2013/11/trifextra-week-ninety-five.html

About EagleAye

I like looking at the serious subjects in the news and seeking the lighter side of the issue. I love satire and spoofs. I see the ridiculous side of things all the time, and my goal is to share that light-hearted view.

    Can I copy Gina’s comment?

    For what it’s worth this is the only way you’d get me to spend any kind of time in the woods. 😉

    I imagine Gina is amenable. I don’t know if Tia the Dryad wood share, but I understand the wood worker has a brother…

    Thanks much for visiting!
