This is hilarious!! The picture was perfect and went so well with the poem. You are so creative and clever...
That picture was a story (or poem) just waiting to be written. And, it picked the perfect writer.
Great job!

You are so sweet, Bunny! As you said, the picture begged for a story to be written. I'm not sure I wrote the best poem, but it was great fun writing it! Thank you so much for your kind and encouraging words.

Slightly used? This is so worthy of a six I wish I had one left as you managed to get in many internal rhymes in your first line. Bravo.
Wouldn't have worked without the picture however and how the heck did you manage that?
I LOL and thoughoughly enjoyed this!

Okay,,,so slightly used might be a "slight" understatement. You got me on that one. You're right, the picture carries the water for the whole poem; I just added a footnote. Don't worry about the sixth star. Your review means more to me than any number of stars! Thank you so much for the review and kind comments. I'm glad you found humor in my little poem.

Brilliant! Funny image, clever words.
If this doesn't win the contest I'll buy that truck - but I might need to replace the tyres!
Hahahahahahahahahaha

Thanks, Shirley Ann. I loved your comment about buying the truck. Be careful with the tires though. If you remove them, you might not be able to find the truck. I appreciate your clever review and especially the sixth star.

Great essence poem!
Your lines have a catchy, rhythmic quality that makes them memorable. The use of repetition and rhyme effectively conveys urgency and excitement, drawing the reader's attention to the deal.

Thank you, for your review. The picture just begged for something to be written about it. I couldn't resist. I appreciate your kind words.

Hi

This looks like a good entry for the contest. Good luck with that!!

I'm amazed at what you guys come up with for this contest. You have to rhyme everything, and you have to capture the gist of a moment

You did a fine job. I'll bet if I kick the tires I would find them flat. It makes me chuckle.

I enjoyed reading your poem

Good job. Thank you for sharing.

Thank you, Pam. I appreciate your positive and encouraging review. I suspect you're right about the tires. The only air in those tires are the big holes where the rims should be. I'm glad you enjoyed it...it was a fun write. Thanks too for the good luck wish.
