Primrose and Orangette
are singing a duet
at the village fete.
Orangette clears her throat
hits a high note
and startles a goat.
The goat bleats a cry
and runs into the guy
who sells meat pie.
The guy really tries
to save his meat pies
but hope soon dies.
All around the fair
people stop and stare
at the guilty singing pair.
Then the pie stand
topples to the ground.
And our duo is banned.

Featured: my hippie bus.
One day I will drive it to Tahiti
with the wind blowing in my hair.

Oh these are so cute!!!
Have a nice day
aww Amalia what sweet story and nice work :)
I would love to escape to an island somewhere and forget about everything for just a while :)
Love the van...the poem too...
Primrose and Orangette are seriously cute. A hippie bus ride to Tahiti sounds like fun :)
Oh what cute little people you have created, and I love the poem. What fun in a Hippie Bus! There are a lot of those around Australia...
Eeeek! How awful! All those pies lost!!!! Poor man! Poor Orangette ..... such embarrassment!
Lovely to see Orangette again! Loved the verse too!
Tee hee, I used to have a converted VW when I was very young ..... I wish I'd kept it! It was funny driving it here in England because it was a Left Hand Drive ..... and of course our cars here are RH drive ..... it did cause a few stares!
My camper van had been driven in South Africa before I bought it and had a "T" bar on the front .... not sure if this was for protection from wild animals or what?????

Beautiful colorful bunnies
I love this cute poem about Primrose and Orangette.
I LOVE your duet and the hippie bus. I am sorry for the pies however, but he can make more!
Lucky you, Barbara. It is my dream car! I'm sure I'll find one some day, it will be Tiffany blue and of an adventurous nature.
Everyone is sorry about the meat pies. I'm just glad it wasn't the scones.
Road trip! We could go together. But I want to pick the music :-)
You have made me smile once again with your sweet talent and oh these bunnies!

Your tale and friends made me giggle...but that van...dreamy! And in red? Are you kidding me? Swing by the states and grab me on the way. Pretty please! :)
They are so adorable! I loved the story too - if only the goat hadn't been startled. :-)
Your rhymes not only make me grin, they make me laugh aloud. What a wonderful hippie van! And Primrose and Orangette could not be more adorable.
I so love your hippie bus!!
What a mischievous double act!!! Loved the poem.
Have a wonderful week :)
Primrose and Orangette look a little baffled by what mayhem their duet has caused at the fair. hehe They are darling little bunnies and I love the little details of the buntings and retro flowers on the bus. My parents owned a yellow and white VW bus just like it when we were growing up. I guess they still had a little hippy left in them. I hope someday you make that trip with the wind blowing in your hair!
Love, love this sweet story in prose. The subjects are adorable, and I hope you get to make that trip with the wind blowing your hair.
There's a gentleman in Pulaski, Virginia who bought hundreds of those vans, and when someone has an order for one, he builds what they want with parts from the others. I'll take a pic of his lot for you the next time we are there, Amalia. Dreaming is fun, eh?
Poor Orangette and Primrose, they didn't mean to cause such mayhem. Can I join your road trip please? I will bring cake :-)
Primrose and Orangette are darling cloth dolls, Amalia. And your poems always make this girl smile. I heard one time that orange was the happiest color, and I think that's true.
Enjoy these wonderful March days, my sweet friend.

Cute and adventurous bunnies! Where are they hiding now, I wonder? Driving to Tahiti in a VW van would be an epic journey! Dream on!
Love the bunnies and the poem about their adventures.
What an adorable little pair they are!! And I love the hippie bus!! I've always dreamed of owning one myself...unfortunately, they are outrageously expensive!! Love and hugs!!
Awww, what a cute poem!
Tania
One of my neighbors drives a van like that! It makes me smile every time I see it.
You'll be SO welcome, Polly!
You must come, Kim! I'm putting a record player on the roof! Everything I needed to know I learned from Priscilla Queen of the Desert :-)
They are cute!! And the van too:)
In my humble opinion, the goat should have been the one to be banned from the fair. Silly thing! Oh, well, I'm sure Primrose and Orangette will bounce back with their singing career. They look quite resilient, and awfully cute. A drive to Tahiti with the wind blowing through my hair sounds delightful. I'll pack my bags immediately! Hugs, Nancy
My first chuckles of the day! Thank you, Orangette and Primrose and Amalia!
I'll be waiting for an account of your drive to Tahiti, Amalia,
Dewena
Another cute and funny adventure for us to enjoy! Love the addition of the funky bus!
Oh how I adore these sweet wee felty friends!
Also, thank you so very much for your warm and heartfelt comments.
I wanted to let you know that I am nearing the end of my college experience and am currently doing a 7-week internship at a museum as a requirement for graduation. It is an interesting experience to be sure.
I must admit that I am struggling to try and manage my time and make sure my family's needs are met. Sadly, this leaves little time left for visiting my favorite people in the world and their fabulous blogs. I hope you'll have patience with me. Thankfully, this time won't last forever and I will soon, once again, be able to see all the wonderful things you are doing.
May glorious weather and lovely flowers put a spring in your step,
Laura
Cute! And such a fun post -- thanks.
Oh these are so adorable, Amalia. And that van also looks cute. :) Such a pretty and fun post.
I love your felt nonsense :-)So cute.
Oh, we just love your bit o' nonsense and sense of great adventure ... I feel the child inside giggling to see such fun.
Wishing you and the bunnies a splendid day...
Brenda
Love it. I hope you do! Groovy, man...
A sad day for the pie man :) Love the duo and the Hippie Bus!!
What an adorable duet Primrose and Orangette make, and I love the van, sweet poem.
They look a very nice duet ...so colourful.
I enjoyed your poem.
Enjoy the rest of your week
All the best Jan
Primrose and Orangette gave me a giggle, Amalia. How sweet! Love the hippie van, too. ♥
Oh no, quite the commotion they have made at the village fete, they will be the talk of the town :)
I love your bus with the flowers, I bet they want to jump right in after their ordeal :)
Have a great remainder of your week!
Ready to take some vacations ;)
They are both lovely !
Have a nice day !
Anna
Your are full of surprises Amalia! Somehow I didn't picture you the hippie type, but I'm on board right there with you! Now what kind of music would we be playing?
Hilarious! Those poor girls, such adventures they have! And I love that little red VW bus... a little trip sounds delightful indeed :)
You made me smile:)))))
Hugs :)

As always, love, love your posts.
Carla
There is a seat with your name on it, Carla, and we'll go on a school holiday :-)
Van Morrison. Definitely. Maybe a little Joni Mitchell thrown in?
Yes, they made a quick getaway straight to the tea shop and found consolation in a large slice of Victoria sponge :-)
Those poor meat pies!!!
On a cool breezy day here, I love the thought of Tahiti!!
Have a wonderful weekend :)
Love the bus and the tiny bunnies!
Your poems make me feel happy and smile :)
Enjoy the weekend, Amalia!
What a sweet joy to see this post tonight! I love your creativity. The flowers on the van are great!
If it makes you feel better, Nancy, the other goats have been giving her funny looks since the Unfortunate Incident. And you must come, Nancy! It wouldn't be the same without you!
Another charming poem and image to bring a smile to my face!
Oh yes! And enjoy the trip!! xx
Tahiti, huh? Wow, sounds intriguing!
Too bad about the doomed duet. They were so cute!
Have a wonderful week ahead, Amalia!

Poppy
Stopped by to get a happy hit of sweetness. Enjoyed your poem and pretty dolls.
LOL this one is like a Mother Goose rhyme :)
Who knew that singing could bring such bad luck? I love the sound of your rhymes!
Those two girls look quite lovely, even though they had a bad day.
I wish you a nice week!
Oh my how cute. Love your poem.
Have a great week ahead 👩🏻🎨
Oh this poor duo;) Is there still a seat left in the bus? Haven't been to Tahiti yet! Thank you much for sharing this duo/duette's experience with ALL SEASONS! Have a bright springy week:):)
Your cute little creations always bring a smile. Pick me up on your way to the city! Hugs, Diane
I would love to ride to Tahiti in that bus!! If I sang out loud it would cause more havoc than Orangette did! (I can't carry a tune.) You make me smile -- thanks!!!
Excellent. Have a good week Diane
Love it! I can see your poem as a picture book. :-)
What a great story!
Lovely poem, Amalia!
I imagine that Primrose and Orangette are singing in my bath room now!
Your hippie car is so cute!!!

Your poem made me smile, Amelia. I do hope you get to drive that hippie van to Tahiti! Can I come along along for the ride?
Super cute creations! I love the picture, the van looks good as well. xoxo
Your poem made me smile,I can just imagine the catastrophe happening at the village fete:)
Adorable poem and I love your Hippy Bus - I could do with a full sized one to take off for the beach. xx
Loved your darling characters, the hippie bus and your cute poem, Amalia. Too bad that Orangette and Primrose were banned!
Also, your little sampler from your previous post is so dear and creative!
What a fun poem Amalia and love the little characters.

I love your hippy bus and Primrose and Orangette. Thank you for the cute story, I leave smiling :)
I love the Hippie Bus, and of cours your sweet poem.
When you are driving to Tahiti, take me with, please.
I love such old Hippie Busses and a lot of sun and wind on my face.
Your poem is so sweet.
Sunny greetings, Nicole
Oh my gosh how sweet! They look adorable (I love the colors) and the VW bus is fantastic! Love your poem and idea of taking a "vacation." xo Kathleen|Our Hopeful Home
My son has a similar VW Type 2, but the top doesn't pop up (and I think it's the bigger scale). My neighbour across the street is fixing up TWO full-sized Type 2 campers! Every so often we hear him rattling down the road revving that distinctive sounding VW engine. I hope Primrose and Orangette aren't banished for the entire fete :(
Wendy
Amalia, that's a fun poem, that poor duet. :) I'm sure you'll have a fun time traveling to Tahiti.
Love your hippie post an it brought back some great memories.. Also enjoyed your wacky and cute post...hope the duet improves in tone.
Ha, ha! Too cute as always!! Thanks for sharing with SYC.
hugs,
Jann
Oh, that is getting featured this week at Home Sweet Home! The doomed duet stole my heart! Tooo Cute! Thanks for sharing at Home Sweet Home!
This is kind and completely made my day! Thank you :-)
They've already been let back in but no more singing :-)
This is turning into a group outing. Wonderful.
I'm so happy you're also joining, Tanna.
We would be honored to have a world traveler such as yourself :-)
You will be very welcome, Pat :-)
There is a seat with your name on it, Diane.
Sweet poem! I love the rabbits! xoxo Su
