Yep it’s that time again! Time to shake my noggin about a bit and see what word combinations emerge this time. Enjoy!
Honk was not the most ambitious goose. His flock mates called him downright lazy. It was not his fault he preferred staying in one place than all this crazy flying about every few months. Who in their right mind wanted to fly miles when a simple leisurely float in a pond felt so good? Granted the float tended to lose its appeal when your downy arse started freezing to the pond, but still. And this year, with the unseasonal weather, what was the big hurry anyway? The Gander in Chief couldn’t seem to decide if they were coming or going!
That’s me….. much prefer floating over any kind of physical exertion…
Much more relaxing that is for sure!!
Don’t just do something . . . sit there!
Couldn’t have said it better myself! HA
Goosey goodness. I seem to be stuck, perhaps I am stuck in the ice.
Those ARE good painkillers aren’t they? My first look at this prompt generated the same reaction. Then I did the old “how can I take this in a different direction?” thang again and walla!
I love this goose. He’s a goose after my own heart. Please can we hear a bit more of his story?
I’ll have to add it to the list of to be finished
I agree with the goose. Enough of this flying around! Fun story. Thank you!
He just needs to retire down south
Lovely gentle piece of writing. Am rethinking what I am going to do now after reading all the great work so far…
There are definitely some unique takes there. But no reason to rethink if you like your idea
How fun to get into the minset of this goose! This (almost
)sounds like a wonderful tale for the whole family, a tale kids could enjoy, too.
Just a simple word change and suddenly it is suitable for all ages
I might have to go further with this one!
I can quite understand where the goose is coming from! Not surprising that nature is getting a bit confused about what she is supposed to be doing! Funny piece.
Glad you enjoyed!
Hadn’t thought of the Gander in Chief as nature but I like it!
We are getting birds that usually migrate staying near us! Love this idea. Can think of a few other Gander’s in Chief who don’t know what to do…
I think Ganders in Chief lack training for this!
He’s a goose after my own heart!
Glad I passed by for a gander at this post
Now that is just wrongly funny!
A great read . . .really enjoyed! Well done you!
Was fun to write too

Thisis such a fun post! I think you should develop these characters into a series. Children would love them! You clever chap!
Never really thought of writing children’s stories, but it is food for though
There are several geese around here that could have penned these comments! Robin
They do seem to love the whole floating thang
