Ha, this is hilarious. I think the one six one is a fine form, as there is something about it that I find most appealing.
Excellent end rhymes and a sure shock to bring a smile to the face of even the most dour reader.
Much enjoyed. :))

Yes, I've been surprised by that. Not a cranky reviewer in the entire group this time! Cha-chinggggg! For that alone, I consider this a winning entry!!
Thanks for the sweet review. Very much appreciated.
Comment from evesayshi
In my opinion, a charming write in perfect union with the picture - especially humorous in capturing a very real moment in time in such a clever way, and in perfect compliance with the prompt - a perfect entry for the contest...

Comment from Lilly Flowers
Haha - I knew what he had seen before I even read your poem. 'Can't unsee it' just made me think of THAT. I love the image you chose. I wonder how many kids have seen their parents at it. Regards, Lilly

Well, sadly, I know mine has. Oy! It traumatized it all forever. As for the pic, I cannot TELL you how many I looked at under the heading "surprised faces" before I found this perfect one.
I so appreciate your warm and encouraging review. Thank you.
Comment from Laurie Holding
Hahaha, so funny and cute. This made my day, and started my weekend off with a laugh. It's hard to make this format actually mean anything, using so few words and having to stick to that rhyme scheme, but you've managed well! Great photo to accompany it, too!

Wow, what a really nice compliment that is! Thanks. It's good practice for me to try to say less. (You know, in both real life and in writing,..)

Hello mystery poet a Good day to you, I hope this finds you well. I liked your 1-6-1 Poem contest entry, you executed it well on the syllable count. Good job and good luck in the contest.

This 1-6-1, Can't Unsee It, has the right setup and warns against the curious peek into privacy protected parts of the house. Some memories burn like onion juice ultra.

Ohhh, isn't THAT the truth!! I have received so many amusing-because-they-weren't-mine stories in people's reviews of this!!! That's been the BEST unexpected perk!
Thank you for this delightful review.

nailed this short form poem with a funny poem about sights best unseen and what children sometimes encounter when they walk in on their parents having sex....

Comment from Michaela Moore
Ha! Ha! Ha! This actually happened to me in the 6th grade, AND I had a friend spending the night, and she saw it too! Such fun! And the image kills me just as much as your last line, "rocked!" Your poem truly says it all perfectly.

O! M! G!
My daughter suffered that same fate (no sleepover guest, though, thank gawd. One 10-year-old witness was more than enough to traumatize those of us on display; trust me on that one!!) And, like you, she still cringes at the memory...and she's 40.
