Welcome, Dear Readers, to the Weekend Trifecta Challenge. Today, we are challenged to write 33-word story incorporating the words: Tether, Loft and Crown.
Tether Ball, The Sport of Kings

When King George would loft himself hither
To attach his ball to the tether
The jab made him cough
And his crown would slip off
Cause if it ain’t one thing it’s anither
Until next time . . . I love you
