Mr. Rusty Monkey

Oh, I forgot about "gold fusion" & even "gold medal". There are just too many crayons here! It was a "shooting star" of a day. Goodnight twitterverse. * skips off into the "deep space sparkle".

Now I have to find my "rose" red crayon to color all those flowers & "gold" for the trophy!

Now what were the colors of Rich Strike? A little “burnt siena” & the magic scent crayon called “dirt” of course. A bit of my color n' smell crayon called “pet shop” perhaps, & maybe a little “ blast off bronze” too...accented by “sonic silver” & "smoke”. Yes, all that.

* digs around in his crayon box hoping to find something to sketch out the great Kentucky Derby horse that he saw on his tv today. *

I declare #KentuckyDerby winner Rich Strike to be the new honey badger. Rich Strike Don’t Care. Last minute replacement horse, with 80-1 odds, smokes favorites in home stretch, then bites every critter within reach! Rich Strike might be my new spirit animal.😆

* picks up the “off road” color mix-up crayon & skips off into a twitterverse that seems to be nothing less than “magic mint”.

* giggles as be brushes up against the “tickle me pink” crayon while putting his colors away. then takes a bite out of the “cotton candy” crayon, which is bubble gum pink & very sweet. *

* then he finds an odd color mix-up crayon called “mixed veggies” to color his trailing sweet potato vines. Yes, that’s exactly how it looks outside my window right now!

* then he finds the old “middle yellow” crayon to color his lantana. this will suit just fine he thinks, because they are arranged in the middle of the planter after all.*

* digs deep into the old box & picks out the “madder lake” crayon - one of those colors from long ago that everyone’s forgotten, but this is the color of his geraniums as he scribbles them to life. *

* pulls out an odd assortment of crayons from many years & many decades, hoping to properly color this scene. *

BTW twitterverse, I planted my very 1st window box today. It’s a showy thing with geraniums, lantana & sweet potato vine. Now when I peep out the window I see beautiful colors!

*opens the door to the twitterverse & declares... “Today was a “crayellow” day!” all of his knock-out roses were in full bloom!*

* leaves his tweet friends ( for now ) with the "banana mania" crayon, & skips off into the "midnight blue" sky. Goodnight twitterverse. Goodnight.

* the "screamin' green" & "electric lime" crayons suddenly jump out at him! He shouts to the twitterverse, "Spring is here & tomorrow is Easter!"

She bought me some new pajamas, with little rainbows on them. I'll wear them because they're comfortable & because I like rainbows. I can see all of my crayons in a rainbow!

But 4/12/22 was a pretty good day @thisbear. Time passes, & Spring happens again, & the world starts to give you colors like "warm and fuzzy" pink @pinkbunnyr. And then it's kinda OK.

As it turned out, the end of the world, for me, was on 6/18/18 @thisbear. I lost the most important person in my life, so it's been nothing but "eerie black" & the "black shadows" crayons since.

Happy you're still around @thisbear! Once upon a time, I worried about the end of the world coming on 11/11/11, & you said something about not listening to those fairies @ the bottom of the garden. Thought that advise was meant for me, so I covered my ears.

But I did see @grrlysquirrel75 yesterday & that was nice. Think I will give her my "mauvelous" crayon. Yes, that's a pretty Spring color for today. * closes the twitterverse window & settles in for the evening.
