Jan Allison Poet Rhyme

Not Quite Wonder Woman

Hey kids watch out because now I'm here
You know with me you have nothing to fear

I'm the one who makes you laugh
When I get my toe stuck in the bath

I love to cook but I burn the dinner
You kids will just get thinner and thinner

Guess I won't have to drive too far
Because I can't reverse park the car

No matter how hard I try
I can't do simple DIY

You say I can't sing Karaoke
Sounds like a frog I am so croaky

My make up looks really foul
As if I applied it with a trowel

You laugh so loud at the way I dress
And say my new hairstyle is a mess

But when all is said and done
I'm just your wonderful old mum

With me your life ain't never glum
And so I have now become...

BLUNDERWOMANNNNNNNNNN

Bonnie Hollywood-Cutts June 1, 2016 at 12:47 PM The title drew me in. kind of poem that drags the reader in and bring their inner kids out to laugh. I guess we're all a bit of blunder woman in disguise. lol Jan Allison June 20, 2016 at 1:14 AM Thanks Bonnie - have to admit no way do I have super powers lol Blunderwoman is someone many can relate to lol:-) hugs Jan xx
