                   “Tea Party” by Dale Innis on Midjourney AI Art

The Flying Shroot Sisters

Let us introduce ourselves…
but first we’d like to say how nice it is to meet you.
We have been waiting for you to visit so anxiously.
The tea is hot and spicy, not unlike our conversation
We have invented special pastries to tickle your fantasies.

We are the famous Flying Shroot Sisters;
We know we need no introduction…
To receive an invitation from us for tea
is an honor and comes with a page of instructions,
We’re sure you’ve heard about us in the news
We are totally worth the wait, so please give us your views.

We hope you’ve brought your cat, because we love all pets
Your kitty can sit licking cream from a bowl from our best china set
We just adore the sounds of purring
licking up the fresh cream to their heart’s content
It reminds us of our former home in West Bavarient.

Feel free like you are in your home, eat up and don’t be shy.
We encourage over eating, silly jokes and have some puzzles to try.
Here, have some cake frosting if you want to paint your face…
Original thinking goes a long way while you’re a guest in our place.

Your cat is purring nicely now, how we like the sound of that!
When you’ve left we’ll talk and laugh about you when we chat.
Thank you for the beansprout bread, we can’t wait to try it…. really
It’s so nice to have something new to talk about each day…ideally.

    • Those Flying Shroot Sisters are a Hoot!! When I saw that image I thought…these gals are not your normal neighbors haha. I got their name because they looked like they could be Dwight Schrute’s sisters (From The Office)… hehe…they have his eyes:)
