RIDING ON A ZEBRA... OMM's BLACK & WHITE CHALLENGE...


 I asked the zebra 
Are you black with white stripes? 
Or white with black stripes? 
And the zebra asked me, 
Are you good with bad habits? 
Or are you bad with good habits? 
Are you noisy with quiet times? 
Or are you quiet with noisy times? 
Are you happy with some sad days? 
Or are you sad with some happy days? 
Are you neat with some sloppy ways? 
Or are you sloppy with some neat ways? 
And on and on and on and on 
And on and on he went. 
I'll never ask a zebra 
About stripes 
Again.

Oh I love this all - you've done a masterful job with those fabulous stripes and what a great response to the prompt. And the red roses add a great punch, as does the poetry. It's a perfect black and white pairing, dear friend. xo
