Notes About The Poem

Image 2 chosen

No contest!

My mummy’s made curls in my hair
No spray tan for me, my skin’s fair
I’m an English rose
I’ll wear my best clothes
The other girls don’t have a prayer!

The beauty pageant is at three
I apply make up carefully
I’m certain to win
As my Grandma Cyn
Is judging the contest, tee hee!

Beryl Edmonds July 16, 2025 at 3:01 PM That’s a lovely cute poem Jan, the beauty’s sure to win the pageant with one of the judges being her Grandma Cyn … Beryl x Jan Allison July 16, 2025 at 3:11 PM Thanks Beryl, I think the picture is so cute! I have to say I disagree with the beauty pageants - let them be innocent children not wearing make up, high heels and sexy clothes! hugs Jan xx
