You have done a great job with the prompt, very creative!
I think this is a fun prompt and it seems as though you
enjoyed writing this verse.
Your writing feels happy, playful, and light. The photo adds
a lot of character and dimension to your writing.
I think sometimes it is a good idea for poets to write just
for fun !
Thanks for sharing!

I'm sorry for not providing individual feedback last time. I have to admit that I have always had a hard time with poetry that doesn't rhyme. I even make my haiku rhyme, which people tell me I shouldn't. I'm not telling you your poem should rhyme. People can do whatever they want with their poems - that's the beauty of it.

Well, one thing for sure, I'm glad he is "still" potty trained.
5th line (child) should be (child's)
Nothing wrong with Kool-Aid, one of my favorites.
What the heck, let the guy be. He isn't hurting anyone. We too often try to force people into this pre-conceived mold of who and what they should be. This guy is living his life.
Great glimpse into a life maybe most of us would like to live.

The Peter Pan Syndrome is real and it does affect some men. Michael Jackson was supposed to suffer from a minor version of it. However, I think that his observing his older brothers romancing some of their female fans may have scarred him for life.

It sounds to me as though he's living his best life! I think we're all kids at heart, and would take any excuse to just play and not need to worry. Many thanks for the great fun entry :-)
