The Real Winner

Walking all around in the sun and grass Happy i was to get a job of high class I worked hard and proved, with men , we are at par. Now anxious to get reward, waiting for our annual scorecard "This a big test, me looking kinda shocked either I get promoted , or I get dropped" Some one cheated away my rights with a glowing face and dress dark bright. The shocking score cut me to the core The old lady said," the real winner is you if you cry no more" (thanks to Susan Baquie)

Hello Muhammad, man's favor is temporary. I like the shifting of perspective in this piece. In the last line consider changing "are" to "is" as the subject is singular not plural.

thanks Janice for nice comments.........it is the crux of the poem..."No more tears" It is very pleasurable moment to have such nice comments from experienced people.

I am not comfortable with the word "Whore" either, and had you used it I would not have commented on this. That being said I highly commend you for not using that word. you have again penned an excellent poem. Well done Muhammad....Maria

Hi I want you to suggest me a replacement for the word whore the in the last verse. Becuase i am not comfortable with this word but i am not able to rhyme it with some soft word. Please suggest me some soft word. Highly apprecaited The shocking score make me cry more The old lady said," the real winner are you not the whore."

The word " core" rhymes - feeling "cut to the core" is a way of saying you are badly hurt. I hope that helps.
