This witty, animal 5-7-5 is definitely witty! I laughed at the last line. It was hilarious. Thank you so much for sharing this, and best wishes to you.

What a sharp sense of humour. Bet the allegator's not laughing. You are very clever.
Gee, I've got to add more. How about, very, very clever. (need another 9 characters. That should be enuff.)

In the olden days, the next sentence after "you should be on the stage" was "It leaves in ten minutes." hahaha.
Thanks for this very nice review. xoxo

This was a pretty funny poem. Your structure of the poem is right and the humor is there as well. I just happen to be watching swamp people on tv and its about alligators
lol. Good job and good luck. Have a blessed day

This punchline is too clever to not get more reviews! I enjoyed the ambiguity and seeing both an alligator with martial arts skills or one that's transformed into a "black belt."
I just got my white belt. Lol. No danger from me, really!
Sorry I did not read your prize-winning post as I don't read the posts with scary warnings!

Oh, it's okay. The truth is, I never do, either! This one is pretty benign (as in, to the point that several reviewers asked why I even HAD the warning!) [and the answer was: because it said in the contest rules that it had to be listed as "Adult/Erotic."] I just decided to try my hand at something new - spread my writing wings, if you will.
Anyway, thank you for this nice review, Miss White Belt! (That is very exciting! How do your joints feel the next day? Is your class for adults, or are you the fun and delightful grown-up among all the kiddies?)

Aww that's a sad end for your alligator! Still, he should have been wiser about his choice of friends! Original and a witty entry for the contest, fulfilling the brief. Good luck! Debbie

I was curious to see what this contest would be. Your 5-7-5 poem gave me a laugh--both animal and witty. I like it very much! Great job! Good luck in the competition.
