About This Poem

Looks Can Be Deceiving

There was a young girl whose silk skin
Was sewn up with some thread and a pin.
     It would drive the men mad,
     That sleek layer she had,
Well, until she took off her silk skin.

    Truth is always there right behind the lies. Thanks to the madness of what we are told to pursue in life we often miss the greatest gift of all ;Knowing one another for who we truly are.

    Ha...well done limerick! I Love limericks ... they're just so much fun to me.

    The drastic measures some people take to look thinner... this one made me laugh. Maybe someday I'll write my one... limericks don't seem to like me very much. Also good luck on getting your guitar! I play piano myself, but I admire anyone whose musically inclined.

    I haven't read this one before!! I thought I had seen all your poems. I'm faving this one. It is not easy to include so much substance in a limerick. I simply love this one. You are amazing!

    I think somebody's silk skin was put safely in the closet on the Trial and Denial poem lol. I am beginning to get inspired to try a limerick. Great job here.

    My silk girl, I hope life is better after taking it off. Tenderly written with a hue of bashfulness I gather. Hope to see more from your writing. Thank you for your comment.

    Good morning, what happened to the blond hair? I have to admit I am partial to the dark hair. As you know, I am also a fan of the smile. Good luck at school.

    It never was blonde haha it is still dark, but the top is lighter brown with highlights so it looks blonde in pics sometimes! Thanks for stopping by :)
