I knew that Gretchen was an artist, but didn't know she made bodily adornments, she would of, speaking of Gretchen, I haven't seen a post by her on Fanstory in recent times, I hope she's OK, she has vanished in the past for a season. Beautifully written Rachelle. Blessings Roy

No, she's having computer issues. Hopefully, they will be remedied soon.

Yes, of course she did, thanks
Comment from Pam Lonsdale
Your face is the only thing that stands out in that sea of dots and red hair:-)
The dots drive you WILD, haha! Just like a wild animal.
I think you began this poem with two words: recalcitrantly styled. Sorry, three words, add: leopard. Then you asked yourself, "How do I put these three words together?" (Not even close, huh?)
Have you purchased the leopard-spotted wallpaper yet?
Nitpicky: Temptations shouts (perhaps temptation shouts or temptations shout)
A fun poem to read and full of Rachelle's wish list items.
I hope this review isn't too spotty for you:-)

Ugh. That last comment. So bad.
Thanks for the eagle-eye edit there on temptations. I appreciate that.

Comment from BethShelby
I like the leopard spots too. I have them on throws and blouses and pajamas. I don't know if it is the call of the wild or what it is that makes them so intriguing. They go well with red hair which I don't have but I'm still inclined to buy anything I see with animal prints. Cute poem.

That's great, but what about the man in your life? Is he as turned on and tuned in to your affection for spotted things? I must apologize, I am being intrusive. I realize and recognize that it is none of my business how your man feels about anything. I tend to see things from the male perspective, or at least I try to. Again I am sorry, it was not my intent to intrude.

Bobby is THE best sport in the entire world. The man allows me as much leopard as I like. I know that, secretly, he keeps his fingers crossed that I will not go completely overboard, but he would be okay with it if I did. (That "happy wife/happy life" thing, I'm betting...)
I love this review - and you get to ask anything you want. You are NOT an intrusive person. You're just showing friendly curiosity. xoxo

Thank you, your kindness is appreciated. I am naturally inquisitive.

Comment from Dolly'sPoems
I adore any kind of animal print and this poem brought the animal out in you Rachelle! Animal print is empowering and I have a leopard print fur coat that makes me feel like a Jezebel! Ha ha ha, but heads turn when I wear it! How sweet of Gretchen to send you some leopard print earrings! I can just imagine you wearing those Rachelle! I think we have that same taste in clothes, classic with a touch of pizzazz! I enjoyed your tribute to animal print style, love Dolly x x x

You are completely right! I, too, have a leopard print coat (okay, actually TWO - one short, one long, hooded and with a HUGE twirly skirt on it. It is my all-time favorite.
We are two peas in a pod - just on opposite sides of the Atlantic.

Comment from Mintybee
This is a fun poem about a temptation that likely won't lead to any harm. The joking tone and the playful rhyme are fun and amusing. The mental image of a whole house decked out in wild cat spots was entertaining.

Why can't my husband think the same way YOU do, Mintybee? It's not like I'm asking SOOO very much, now, is it?!
Thank you for the delightful review! xoxo
Comment from Ulla
Hi Rachelle, I loved this poem and with your 'obsession' with the leopard spots. It was a fun poem to read. Thanks also for the reason behind it. All the best of luck. Ulla xcx

Thank you for the affirming review. I'm going to tell my husband, "Well, my friend ULLA thinks it's a wonderful thing!" We'll see if that helps. Stay tuned. xoxox
Comment from Mrs. KT
Hello, Rachelle!
What fun!
You have my teapots, perennials, and paisley prints on the run!
I've tried to do leopard; yes, this is true!
But, in truth, leopard looks much better on YOU!!!!!
Smiles all around!
fondly,
diane

I say each of us gotta be me. We're uniquely ourselves. I had fun reading this contest entry. It's wonderfully written. It has a great message. Good luck with the contest.

How about you, Barbara? Do you own any leopard? Beware - it STARTS out innocuously enough, but over time, it owns your life.
Thank you for the very fun review.

No, I don't. Sorry.

Lol. Don't be sorry; you're one of the safe ones! Rejoice! xoxox
Comment from njcoleman
Very alluring! Love it. My wife loves country music. Me? I'm rock and roll all the way. But, one song I do like is by Pam Tillis and there's a line in there "with Tanya Tucker in Leopard skin pants!"
There's something about leopard skin!

Hahahahaha!! Nothing can compete with that, can it? My husband is the world's best sport, I have to say, because we honestly do have it ALL OVER the bedroom (well, as you can see by the photo) as well as in the master bath, and now it's even nudged its way into the dining room.
Thank you for the fabulous review. xoxo
