How To Lose a Bikini

Here's a tale I've told before From when I was a teen The subject at the time was sore For I caused quite a scene! Had a brand-new bathing suit My first bikini ever I figured I looked mighty cute And that was my endeavor! Up the high dive I did go Winking at the guys Time to give them all a show Bending legs and thighs Diving off the board I went Far as I could take it One way my body was sent Bikini didn't make it! Off it flew into the air And left a naked me Falling to the water there For all the world to see So embarrassed my face was flushed Gone was little Miss Sassy In the water I stayed and blushed Humiliated lassie! ** for contest "Reconsidering Laughter" sponsored by Desiree Birdseye

Deb, wow! I can't believe I forgot to thank you for the nice and silly poem you entered in my contest. A late late late CONGRATULATIONS. Thank you for the smirks and smiles your poem gave me while reading it. Hope you can forgive me, it is not like me to stoop low and diss all who support me or my contest. Even if I get no response, everyone still matters, and I try my best... Love love LINDA...

LOL Life is filled with embarrassing moments like these, Deb. Although my bikini never totally came off when diving into a pool, I did lose my top once body surfing in the ocean. I wouldn't get out of the water until a friend found it and gave it back to me. Great entry for the contest! Wishing you success. Lots of people will relate to this. Love, Carolyn
