I lived inside a jar,
till someone took the lid off -
and well, now, there you are!
Or rather, that's where I am -
all free and on the loose.
But freedom, I've discovered,
is not a lot of use
when you haven't got a body,
let alone a pair of feet,
and now the jar is empty,
I've nothing left to eat!

Aww... the demise of the Cookie Monster. Poor Cookie Monster. He and I had so much in common ;-)
ReplyDeleteFreedom is definitely better with a body! K.
ReplyDeleteHehe... a very sweet take on the prompt!!! Amusing... :)
ReplyDeleteWhen you drown in your crystal clear tears.
Re-stock with chocolate digestives - cures most things.
ReplyDeleteThere's a girl after my own heart! ♥
DeleteLOL..Poor cookie monster!!
ReplyDeleteYes, RYN ..it's his way of saying 'I want to be alone' ;)
Ah yes! But consider, if your Cookie Monster had stayed put, someone might have eaten him/her/it.
ReplyDeleteJinksy....superior rhyme and meter. Good whimsical fun...a very enjoyable read. BTW...When it comes to digestives, I prefer the originals. Vb
ReplyDeleteThis is downright cute!! (I love the term 'digestives.')
ReplyDeleteThey are very tasty biscuits, made by McVities, and best when coated on one side in plain, dark chocolate! Little Nell will no doubt confirm this. :)
DeleteI would leave a response but I really do need to go and get a cookie. Terrific work, Jinksy. Thank you for sharing. =D
Deletelol....I might just have bitten his chocolate-dipped bum a bit before he escaped.....!
ReplyDeleteNovel response to the prompt...
ReplyDeleteThe cookie monster aka a genie. Hope he's a nice being now that he's free. Great thoughts Jinsky!
ReplyDeleteHank
I think he's sitting in and been sippin' on White Lightening!

Clever, as always! But where is the original picture?? You've been doing that clever thing again, havent you? ( what with that and the homemade snowflakes, where will it all end...)
ReplyDeleteErm... likely to be a padded cell - as long as it has a computer built in?!
DeleteYou've made me feel a bit sorry for that cookie monster!
