This work has reached the exceptional level

Best one of these that I've seen.

It is funny and witty and cute and has a wonderful ending. It should do very well in the contest and may have scared me off entering!

Good luck

Steve

H-m-m-m-mmmmmmmmmm ... Well, she certainly sounds very nice. However, in the circles I run in, compulsive lying is viewed as a bad habit, and one heck of a nuisance, too! Maybe I'm being too judgmental, maybe not. All the green in this post reminds me of a serpent...UGH!

solid use of abab rhyming in the first stanza and couplet rhyming in the second, in good Rispetto format
great alliteration and strong verbs in smoke or swear or slurp - good comedy too
A very witty second stanza :-) Brooke

I love this rispetto, Anonymous Writer. Your meter and rhyme scheme are spot on for a riepetto, and the humor at the end gave me a big smile. Good luck in the contest.

Short and sweetly expressed that the poet does not have a bad habit.The poet honestly expresses that she is free from bad habits and admits she is a lady with good habits only.

I liked your whimsical poem about bad habits and I believe you when you said you are a lady. You have made good use of rhyme and language and it had a nice rhythm. Good luck in the contest. Faye

This lady wouldn't be much fun, would she? And of course dhe'd never, never fib, but might she exagerate just a little? This was a fun read; gave me a smile. Good luck in the contest.

Ha ha ha. This has been my line for years though it's been challenged more than once. The color scheme and picture are so pretty and feminine. It draws the reader into the voice of a very proper lady. I love the smooth thyme of every-other-line. The last two lines are the clincher, of course she doesn't lie.
