A Model Named Connie-For Contest

There once was a model named Connie
who wanted her skin to be tawny.
She took the wrong stuff,
so now she’s Miss Tough!
Her arms and her legs became brawny.

Feb. 20, 2016
* The rhyming vowel of COnnie and tAwny are the same in American English

Good luck in the contest! I hope you and yours are well. I see pictures of women like that at times. I worked with a personal trainer about a year ago but have now become a little lazy. Time to get back on a health routine! Peace & Love Matthew Anish
