Oops, I voted for this but forgot to review. I should've known it was you. I love the bath and great minds soak alike.
Sending you my best today and congratulations for the contest win, Yvette,

Congratulations on your stunning Ode Poem contest victory, Yvette! Lauding your bathtub was a clever idea, and the illustration is perfect! You were very resourceful in digging it up.
Hugs,
Don

Thank you so very much for the congrats, Don -- it was certainly a fun contest, but your cat was HILARIOUS!! :) ;) Mine was more of: come up with something unusual and go with it: and what better than my daily bubble bath! It should be mandatory therapy for anyone who is under stress or has to deal with groups of teenagers on a regular basis - LOL! LOL! :) ;) Thanx for stopping by for the review, sir, and have a wonderful weekend!! ;) ;) Yvette

You're welcome, Yvette. You won fair and square, but now....Mandatory bubble baths? It's a good thing you don't make the rules!
-
Maybe not in YOUR corner of the universe, but over here.... yeah, let's just say I have a bit more sway..! LOL! LOL! :) ;) Take care, Don
-
?? More sway in bubble baths there?
Well, enjoy!

This poem is about someone having a relationship with a bathtub. Cough. Long, awkward pause. He scratches his head. Then he wonders what the spot is on his shirt. Hmmm.

I like that you chose a topic that I would not have thought of.
Nice picture too. It's nice to appreciate life's simple pleasures,
and you conveyed that nicely. Good job.

Comment from Peter Gardner
Very nice. Short and sweet, really lets me know you are close to this friend. Not until the end did I realize you were talking about a bath tub. What a surprise! I loved the turn of events.

Hello Mystery Poet,
I once entered an ode contest and lost big time to a poet who wrote about her daughter who survived cancer and was a motivational speaker. I haven't tried an ode poem since. The favorite winning topics seem to be either cancer, puppies, or kittens.
I'm in agreement with you that a nice bubble bath puts me on track so that all is right with the world for me :) I'm not crazy about your pronounciation of again. It rhymes with when to me. Your way has me seeing hillbillies who are missing a few teeth. Sorry, I gotta be honest.
Best wishes in the voting booth.

Comment from Ronni
Truly love this Ode dear lady, the pic instantly relatable and ignited
an instant relay of sighs, sensations, and grateful consolations...
the good old fashioned leisurely bath and tub escape! I was
already anticipating my own such reprieve while read, you're
revelry so enchantingly enticing and luxuriously divine!
Still even simple home pleasures often cannot be beat, even by
the often overly hyped spa's and massage studios! LOL!
Thanks for sharing dear!
Best wishes always, Ronni
