A Cute Ankle

Alone, aging actor alive after abuse.
Adult adept, adapt action above acute ankle.
Admit ached, agree affix aptly crepe.
Ashen apres, amigo angry apart afore. 
Asked aloof aunty avoid awful baloo.
Alarm nurse ahead, agony alert.
Aggro afoot...adios amigo.

Good evening Anne-Lise. It is our national holiday today where everyone gets drunk! Sadly, I'm only on my first glass on wine. I love your visits because you bring such warmth with you. Thank you.

I love your first line, Jean. I fell in love with this actor right away. Very unfortunate that he died tragically of a foot infection. LOL Well done. Congrats.

I'm just delighted you could follow my train of thought Line. In fact he survived, thanks to the nifty nurse.

My dearest Anna-Lise, you are too kind. I feel bad that I have not been here as much as I should. The Soup has been a wonderful place of refuge for me, thanks to you and others like you. I have renewed my membership recently for another two years, so I do intend to post plenty of poems. Not all as crazy as above I hope.

Jean, I see you stuck with lots of A words. Which made your poem quite unique. I loved how you ended Adios Amigo!! You even got in some Spanish words! This was a very difficult challenge, Will post mine later today. Hope you are having a merry XMas season!

Jean Murray

I know your one will be worth reading Andrea. Best of luck.

first a response to your knitting comment. The only thing I learned to knit were little booties but I forgot how to finish them off!! OR how to start them. I was very slow in my church program learning to knit. Those kinds of things boggle my mind, but the actual process of knitting, once I learned it, was so fun to do! Now to see your poem.

It is fun. I like any hobby that is also productive.
