Melissa the Vampire

Melissa The Vampire


     Melissa is a vampire

     They say she is a disgrace.

     She never brushes her hair

     Or puts make up on her face.


     But Melissa has a problem;

     A handicap you will agree.

     When she looks in a mirror,

     Her reflection she cannot see.

:) Laughed at this witty poem! No woman can put makeup on without a mirror and this is a genuine handicap for poor Melissa. Some of us just choose not to look at our reflections. LOL
