In Like A Lion, Out Like a Lamb - A Mikeydred March Dollar Prompt For All Vocal Creators

Introduction

Every month I set prompts in the Vocal Social Society and offer a dollar tip to five random creators who take part in it and ask them to share their stories in the comments and on the thread in the group.

This is not official and usually after each one I say that's it, but this is another time where I say, "No, let's have another prompt.

So What's Gonna Happen This Time?

I want you to write me a story or poem, the theme is things that relate to the month of March. You can also use the title, which I have for my example story. Then there is Julius Caesar and The Ides Of March, and Mars the Roman God Of War as well.

Here are a few March days which may provide inspiration:

Did you know that March is National Umbrella Month? Here are some more wacky things to celebrate this month:

March 3: What If Cats and Dogs Had Opposable Thumbs Day

March 11: International Fanny Pack Day

March 13: National Ear Muff Day

March 16: National Panda Day

March 16: Absolutely Incredible Kid Day

March 23: World Meteorological Day

March 31: World Backup Day

I will write and include an example story, but that won't be classed as an entry.

I am looking forward to seeing what you come up with and I know that you are all incredible creative Vocal talents, so get your pens, paper and keyboards out.

The music is "March, The Mad Scientist" by Jethro Tull.

So SHARE YOUR WORK in the comments here, and/or also on the thread in the Vocal Social Society if you are on Facebook.

Please drop your entry in the comments, otherwise, I won't see yours when I choose the random winners, Also please link and mention this piece in your entry, thanks for that.

On Tuesday 1st April 2025. I will award a dollar tip to five random Vocal Creators who have shared their work here.

Here is the last prompt/challenge with the results and the five randomly chosen stories:
