Your poem, Vanity Solutions, is hilarious! But what a good idea! I think I will start doing this myself! At least it will be a funny photo, instead of a sad one! LOL Good 5-7-5 syllable form.

Now this is what I call an awesome 5-7-5 poem.

Its so brutally honest although since we're telling the truth here ... this photo atop your poem leaves me feeling a little squeamish ... ROFL

And now I shall go to your profile page and seek out the real photo of you (if there is one of course ... LOL)

well done, Play
take care
steve

I think the rat in the picture should try standing on her head. This poem is laugh out loud funny. Too bad by the time we need to stand on our heads the rest of the body is pretty worn down too. Thanks for sharing.

Very very interesting picture I MUST say hah and it completely goes with the 575, I was wondering though where the standing on my head comes in with the picture?

    Well, its more flattering for older ladies(like me) if they stand on their head for a picture, because everything shifts back to when they were younger. Thank you for your kind review!!

Hi playinaround,

This is a delightful 5/7/5 poem and one that made me laugh. The picture you chose is hilarious, as well. This poem reminds me of the saying...whatever works, hurts. What doesn't hurt gets in the way. Love this humorous poem....bklessings, chey

Your attempt at humor is rather droll, but well written. The picture fits the thought quite well. This seemed to fit the criteria of the format for this poem. I enjoyed reading it... John

I love it! No sixes left, but you would have had it if I had! Isn't this the words of most natural women, especially after childbirth? I adore the picture, so even cows have the same problem??? This would have been so good in a contest. xsx

A little humor
goes a long way
to help old rats
have a better day

So please, pass the cheese
and quit being such a tease
or find yourself
getting up off your knees

Well done with your 5/7/5 - a humorous look at the effects of aging, Buck
