Look What Happens When You Add Punctuation

Imperfection ... it reveals a flaw,
Let's banish this word out the door,
Here's a revelation
Add some punctuation
I'm Perfection ... this phrase I adore!

I had to laugh at some of the comments on names this poem received. I remember how astounded I was that Gwyneth Paltrow named her child Apple. I can’t imagine! A very clever poem my friend. I hope you and hubby are doing well? Blessings xxoo
