Best To Make It Tall

I was in the Pop grocery store wondering why
People were dropping their goods at something of my.
I caught a glimpse in the mirror and realized my error,
I had arrived in my zebra suit, Wonder Woman mask and tiara.
"It's dress up day at preschool," I said with a shout.
Scared looks turned to delight, the word went all about.
In truth, it was Saturday, no preschool at all.
But if you want a tale, it's best to make it tall.

Ha-ha. I really meant this innocuously. I am basically pretty naive, pretty innocent, I guess... :)

I do not dare answer this with "Which cheeks?" so I won't. "

Thank you, Pixie. I am actually wearing my zebra suit to bed tonight.
