Hmmmm. One of these things is not like the others! (Do you remember that old children's tune?)--

Once more I have clear recollection of reading this ans a shiny object must have diverted my attention...

Which is what today is all about.

I will (when finished) have been through your entire portfolio and (hopefully) will have left a review for all!

This really made me laugh. I mean, really how did those things get there. When I saw Nancy Pelosi's picture I just about died! :) so clever. Best of luck in the contest. :)

Sorry for the delay in my thank you message Sharon. I got so behind before surgery and now am trying to catch up a little while in the hospital. I did appreciate your kind words for this poem, just as I always appreciate you and your friendship.

Hahahaha! Oh, Debi, I did guess how the others got there, but Nancy?? I'm just not sure if she got lost one day and couldn't find her way back home, so the congressional halfway home took her in, or the Aliens couldn't stand her anymore and decided to give her a weird persona and send her back to earth, either way, it didn't work out for us. I loved this! Best, JohnC.

What a great entry for the contest. You have chosen great pictures of mysteries. I am sure we will never know how that truck got up in the tree and the horse got part way through the fence. The bicycle was probably left parked close to a small tree which grew around it.

Thanks Terry, and I did get first place with this one. I know I take a chance and always get a couple nasty comments when i do this, but it's just that little rebel in me that loves a good political joke here and there. And reviews like yours always makes it so worth it. The only thing that I hate about these blind contests, my best friends like you don't get notified. I love that I get notified with yours because even if I get behind I always catch up.
Thank you so very much my dear friend!!

These images are inincredle, how on earth did they there indeed? There are a number of reasons, but then one would as why? I think the bicycle in the tree is the most perplexing, well done, blessings Roy

This 5-7-5, How'd This Happen?, has the proper formatting and ponders the birth of bicycles, truck kites caught in trees, photo-bombing cows, and moderate democratic leadership surviving a conservative push to take the country back to 1984.

Bill, I tend to believe that you and I are so very much on the same page.
I loved your comments, but especially the 1984 one. (as scary as it, but so true) And I love that you also get that the others were fake and that I put them in there as a ruse for the political humor. Thanks so much for the awesome review and great comments my friend.

I couldn't stop looking and pondering those first three pictures--fascinating. Great mysteries abound- a short and straightforward entry free of misspellings.
Best wishes.

You're welcome.

Hi author, very good, very cute. Your poem definitely gives us a few things to ponder--one of them more than the other. Life certainly
has its mysteries. At the end of time, all things will be explained--hopefully. Also, by then, we probably won't care. This poem made me laugh. As this is a contest entry, I wish you good luck. LateBloomer

Thanks so much Margaret, you and so many others made this such a fun political humor poem. And I appreciate that, as when I do these I take the chance that it may not always be so well received. Thanks again my friend!
