My Life Is Hash

I love a man who’s rash
and who carries lots of cash.
If he has a little flash
that only adds to his panache. 

I dug into my stash
to provide a birthday bash
for my caballero with his sash
who really made a splash.


My dreams have turned to ash
when my lover made a dash
and took off with my antique Nash.
My heart can’t survive the gash.

Wonderfully witty write, Joyce! So much fun to read. My crystal ball sees a big win in your future. Amazing use of the monorhyme form -- love the panache! And it will surely remind some women of men they have loved in the past. Love you, Carolyn

the moral of this story is... "never fall for a man whose rash might gash you!" Fun write, Joyce, thanks! ~N

Love it Joyce! I had a '59 pink Rambler for years-just sold it two months ago since I moved-I miss it already :(
