She Is the Canvas

Red tattoos on her fingers, Spider tattoos on her toes Pink tattoos on her forehead Roach tattoos on her nose Cat tattoos on her arms, Dog tattoos on her legs Lady bug tattoos on her flower tattoos Two tattoos of ham and green eggs. Does she think they are pretty? What about when she is old? They tell my tales; some are witty. My story will now be told. Dracula tattoos on her eyelids in black, Frankenstein tattoos on her back Orange tattoos drawn by her brother Mack. She loves being the canvas as a matter of fact.

She sounds like she should be renamed: 'Can V. Ass.' lol. Thanks for the chuckles. You really 'tattooed' this one, Caren. ~ Tattoo of Fantasy Island

Oh my! Occasionally I run into a person who has tattoos all over their (visible) body, and I wonder what will happen when their skin starts to sag and droop. Deb never would get a tattoo for that very reason. I don't have any either.

Deb really wanted a starfish because she loved the starfish story. She wanted it on her ankle, but she never got it. That's a story. She said she would get a tattoo if I would have an ear pierced. Well, I got the ear pierced, but she reneged on the tattoo. I still wear an earring in my left ear. I kept one of her earrings and wear it...a peridot. It is such a part of me that no one even mentions it anymore. I'll tell you the story of the starfish sometime.

I always wanted one but now I don't. It would have been a tiny green dragon wearing a red tam.
