Poem 101

Poem 101

Never knew just how it could happen to me
I’m so happy that’s how it was meant to be,

Just like a big funny red balloon that just got
Bit by a wild kangaroo, who was jumping and forgot,

Just how it ended up in my kitchen on bended knee
Oh, oh I’m hoping it doesn’t want to tackle me,

For I’m not cut out to ran fast and aimlessly
Can you even imagine a gal like me running with feathers?

Till my sides are all stitched up like Indian or ostrich leathers
Oh no I have to go!

No I am not an Aussie, just a funny Canadian kind of gal.... when I saw this delightful scene of a picture thought I'd use it for the poem which I had written. Was looking for a cartoon type picture and came across this one. Kind of suits what I had written..... hugs Theresa

Wasn't even thinking of entering it in contest. I don't usually enter them, seems like I'm just way too busy to enter or maybe I just don't like getting those ugly not applicables. huggs Theresa
