Cross

Large crosses I’ve already had to bear, but smaller ones last year I wish I’d missed - like getting not one Christmas gift. Unfair! It seems that Santa’s crossed me off his list! And one day I did not get very far with my attempt to cross the street. Oh my! Halfway across, I got hit by a car, so now there is a pin inside my thigh! Though masculine one of my roommates is, he finds my clothes more than just entrancing. A cross-dresser, he thought my clothes were his, for I caught him in my panties prancing! EWWW! The very thought of them - his bum-floss! Is it no wonder I’ve become so cross? Feb 27, 2019 for Carolyn Devonshire's Cross - Your Interpretation, Old Or New For Prizes Poetry Contest

This was the only witty entry and it gave me some great laughs, Andrea. Your form is spot on and the reference to the cross dresser borrowing your clothing is hilarious! With many outstanding entries, judging was difficult (again). Congratulations on a second-place win! And thank you for supporting the contest. Best wishes, Carolyn

Couldn't help but laugh with this one Andrea. Especially the last part. Burn those panties AND TELL THAT ROOM MATE THE NEXT TIME HE CAN FIND A NEW PLACE TO LIVE! ;) Great job. Loved this. God Bless, JB
