Prompts:
3WW- foolish, mercy, relish
NaPoWriMo- least favorite words (nincompoop, louse, twerp)

Mr. Nincompoop
As a child, momma always told him,
“Don’t be foolish in life’s decisions,
practice mercy, and relish each day.”
By the time he turned thirty,
he was labeled Mr. Nincompoop,
an unforgiving louse, and bilious twerp.
Why didn’t he listen to his momma?

Poor Mr Nincompoop (such a wonderful word)..eventhough he's 'bilious'..Jae ;)
Yeah, every kid should listen to their Momma!
Momma knows best. Maybe it's not too late to change.
Ah, so often the case. Enjoyed that.
Oh, yes! Momma knows best. This is a fun one, Laurien
Sheilagh lee said That's right Mother knows best!Great poem
Nincompoop is such a great word. It always makes me laugh, poor slob, why didn't he listen to momma?
Why indeed? Great used of the three words this week!
Christine said it right LOL
So he bucks the trend, ignores his mother and becomes an individual we can write about. We don't need many but a few help us in our writing.
Thanks... moms always know best(most of them, that is), don't they?
oldegg- Crazy characters are the best... = )
"Some mothers do have 'em"......"Oooooh, Betty!"
Always listen to your mamma.
Laurie, a good take on the three words and a nice sevenling as well. Bilious is a great word. Thanks.
