This was a beautiful entry for the Cliche' It Ain't So writing prompt contest.

I loved your poem about being in line for the women's bathroom ... lol, so true.

Well done. Goodluck in the contest.

A cleverly done rewording of a common cliche. The statement you make is so true, especially at large events. The font is large enough to be read easily. The visual is perfect. I like how you made the tile the cliche. That's for sure starting with the cliche first. lol I think you got the prompt rewrite as intended. Good luck in the contest.

I am always amazed at the differences between the lines for the men's room and the ladies' room. Do we men really go that fast? or are you ladies just that slow??

    well, one female reader suggested that maybe men didn't take the time to wash their hands, BUT That didn't come from me. Beats me, except women always look in the mirror to either put on lipstick or mess with their hair. Takes time.
    Thanks for reading, and I hope I answered your questions. :)

    Thanks so much, Rachelle. I don't think the men are voting for it, but I love your comments. thanks again.

    Hahaha!! Yes, you're right! Good point. They have no concept. (I remember a woman in line one time asking the woman next to her, "Why is there never a line for the men's bathroom?" The second woman answered, "Because it takes time to wipe, flush, and wash your hands." Now, I think that EVERY TIME I'm somewhere and waiting to use the ladies' room.

Ha! Ain't that the truth. This is a super cute entry for the Cliche It Ain't So Prompt. Good luck!!

I think all these entries would look better in poem format, but I guess this is the default for the contest... ???

Have a great day,
Erika

This is an excellent entry for the cliche contest,
time never flies when you need it to,
and the older you get the more you need it to only fly
when you want.
Nicely done with good picture.
Best wishes.
Robert

I find this cliche hilarious and flat out funny. There is some dark humor in this poem. Excellent work! No grammatical errors. Good job! I have enjoyed reading it. Thank you for sharing!

So true! Men will never understand your contest piece or the woes of menstrual cycles, pregnancy, or birthing a child. But for a woman, this poem is right on! Thanks for this! It made my night.
