Time for Prosery in the Pub ~ Lisa offers a line from Dudley Randall's "Ballad of Birmingham" as inspiration for our prose ~ But that smile was the last smile to come upon her face.
Friday afternoon. Time for Susie to retrieve her guitar, head over to Oakview Senior Living community, sing for the residents. Perennially happy, a smile on her face ~ but that smile was the last smile to come upon her face ~ on THIS Friday!
Midway through Susie's soulful rendition of "You are My Sunshine" two mischievous canines [permission granted to attend when leashed] decided it was time to break free.
Soon the scene turned into a chaotic canine caper. The audience erupting in laughter as the adorable dogs raced toward the stage. Susie found herself with leather wrapped 'round her legs ~ dropping the guitar, tumbling to the floor, dogs dancing gleefully around her.
Residents were in stitches, staff couldn't contain their mirth, Susie scrambled to regain control. ~ Within minutes bindings unraveled, dogs reunited with giggling owners ~ singing continued ~ and a strict NO DOGS ALLOWED policy established!
