Puttin On the Ritz - For Contest

Out on the town
Getting on down
Acting the clown -
Puttin on the ritz

Wedding invite
Don’t dress too bright
Girdle’s too tight -
Puttin on the ritz

Drunk at the Wake
Fell in the lake
‘twas a mistake -
Puttin on the ritz

Amazed and somewhat overawed at this; it took 4 minutes to write. Odd how you can agonise over a single word for days and sometimes weeks before finally committing a piece to 'paper' and with others the words just fall out onto the page. Thank you all for the huge support you give me here; it is more than special to me. ;)
