Comment from LIJ Red

Excellent

Fine entry, but what were the words scratched under the picture? Oh. I see. A descendant of the Nipponese form in
dialect? The oriental masters twirl in their graves.

Oh, I'm sure they are, LIJ Red. But I would imagine they do when all westerners try and write haiku, senryu, or, as this entry is, a 5-7-5. Gotta' keep 'em off their backs and on their toes, right?

We guess that with the sites at the fair it would be a shame to miss them. The poem makes one chuckle out loud. Follows 5/7/5 & certainly the theme.

Hi,

I wonder, do you think 'sweet cheeks' will be going to the fair too? LOL

Fun, creative presentation. Great poem. I like the different approach to the theme, than the obvious.

The best of luck in the contest

Cheers & Blessings

Love county fairs, especially the one that Bessie likes. If your 5-7-5 poem didn't get my attention before, it has it now. A lovely young lady. Thanks for sharing.

Hah-ha, yeah, I'd say that lovely lady could entice any red-blooded American male into going to the County Fair, Vic, LOL.

Thanks so much for the thoughtful review, my friend. :}

Oh, I'd be willing to go to a lot of different places with this young lady. I just wonder how much concern I'd give being so much older than she. Probably none. I'd just enjoy hanging out with her. Take care, Dean.

Fulfilled all the requirements of the contest perfectly. Syllable count, complied with restrictions, and very humorous indeed. Good luck in the contest!

Thanks so much, 1954speed, and I just wanted to lighten the mood a little. I had my doubts about posting this one, for obvious reasons. But, I hoped that since most of us are adults here, the lighthearted humor would be appreciated. I am truly glad that it was by you!

Thanks so much again, my friend. :}
