Banana Peel- Virelai

Felt under my heel A banana peel I slip Loudly now I squeal Like a clapping seal I flip A mid air cartwheel Now terror I feel I yip! Need to get a grip Sweat beads off me drip Oh boy. I bend at the hip My feet now I grip No joy I brace, bite my lip And land from this trip Not coy Was this evil ploy? A cartoon decoy? With zeal! A plan I employ Litterbug, destroy! Big deal… Calm down from annoy And had a Rob Roy Surreal. March 16, 2023 Write me a Virelai Sponsor: Kim Rodrigues

Reads like a good contender for the contest to me. Way to go. Thank you for sharing. I hope if this is true that you did not get hurt only your pride injured in the fall. Sara

Haha thanks Sara, I have had too many clumsy moments to count but have not yet actually slipped on a banana peel. (knock on wood hehe)
