I woke up one morning,
and without any warning,
before I could grapple with my coffee cup,
I saw something that gave me quite a mix-up!
There was a donkey poking his nose in my backdoor window!
The surprising sight put me into a still state of limbo,
as I didn't know if I should shoo him away,
or to invite him in to stay.
Surprisingly, I decided on the latter,
while quickly whipping up some batter.
In no time flat,
in chagrined silence, we both sat,
and ate my homemade donuts and crepes,
then, out the door, full and happily he traipsed.
And this was how I chose to cater,
to my nosy braybor.

Bahahaha! This is so hilarious.🤣 If he brings friends next time, you might need a bigger batter bowl…
Do you want one? I can get you one and he can live on your back porch 😉 you could ride him to church 😬
I loved this! Such a fun read.
