Picture This

I set out with only one aim – To purchase a new picture frame. I knew the right size But to my surprise Not one seemed to call out my name. I finally chose one and paid, Hoping when I got home, I’d be swayed But that didn’t work out (Should have trusted my doubt!) So my picture is still not displayed. Now I have to get back to the store Which, to me, is a not-so-fun chore But I’ll try for take two Hoping out of the blue I’ll find something not noticed before.

Nice work with the limerick format. We can relate to your tale as we have been there. May your frames and pictures hang proudly. Well done

I'm like you Ilene. I have a picture in my mind how something should look and won't settle for less.

Having them professionally framed is outrageous. I hope you find the one you want, Mrs Ilene:)

Great like Ilene...I found a great selection of unique and sometimes antique frames at the local thrift stores.

Lovely string of limericks ... you chose to write in my favourite form! I can sympathise Ilene, its never a good idea to go for second best as you will never be satisfied - hope you get the frame you are looking for:-) hugs Jan xx
