That is the beginnings of a fun story! Pirates, bananas and one smart monkey – I love it.

Let me tell you the tale of “Chitterling Bonzo”. You see everyone thought that “Black Bart” (the pirate) was the one with the brains behind his raids and voyages. No one suspected that it was really his pet monkey “Chitterling Bonzo” who called the shots and directed all the efforts of the band of pirates led by “Black Bart”. This was why no banana boat was ever safe sailing the high seas, or any banana split was secure from the watching eyes of “Chitterling Bonzo”.

Many thought that the approaching formation was nothing more than your typical iceberg. However; this particular one was non-other than the notorious band of rouge penguins captained by “Black Ricco the Scared”. He was noted for his frequent raids up and down the coast to acquire their favorite loot – “gummy worms”!

Your questions spawned responses immediately:

The moon jazzsinger can only be hear on the island where one is tuned in for accompaniment. Populated spaces are too full of distracting details.

The lyrics and style change with the phases of the moon. Ocean waves mixed with the prevailing winds create the percussion.

Now: What other noise does the moon make?
I have often imagined the moon to be a story teller. New stories are begun with the full moon ebbing and flowing through the plot finishing with the next full moon which leads to the start of a new story. The stories are a sustenance of life, growth and understanding allowing the listener to communicate with the wind.

This immediately made me think of some questions – What kind of noise would the moon make? Can you only hear it on a deserted island?

I’d love it if the moon was some kind of serenading jazz singer. Hey, maybe that’s where we got the phrase “moonlight serenade”.

Thanks for sharing!

The quiet deserted island came alive with noise with the full moon . . .

If no human ever lived there is the island still considered deserted?

Here is a post from Dawn that you might not see otherwise…

My phrase for a deserted island is “a lonely wind breathed through the trees”

I love the lonely wind – I could hear its sighing breath rustle the leaves on the trees. Fantastic!

Comment on Ideas on a Snowman by Gra'ma B

I would like a snowman made of marshmellows that tries to pose as an official SNOWman. His personality would be querky. His adventures would be mischievious but funny in a “Miss Padiddle” sort of way. It gets a bit “sticky” when he is discovered as unmeltable yet munchable in the bright sunshine.

It would be intresting to have a snowman who only would drink hot chocolate, watch sad chick flick movies, and enjoy a nice sauna. He manages his love for each activite, until on a bad day he indules in all three melting activites. Things get a bit slushy.
