This is a clever, well-written poem. I was also impressed by how well you kept the tempo tapping right along. I wish you well in the contest. I'm sure the judges will look kindly on it... unless they happen to be old and grouchy.

What a spunky and charming piece! It's so truthful that it can't help but make the reader smile with recognition. We all relate to getting older. The picture you chose is a delight! Well done!

Comment from Elizabeth Emerald
Darkly humorous and clever take on the betrayal theme--an original entry for the contest--which I expect will be rife with tales of emotional devastation. Hope the judges will appreciate the levity!
