I looked like plump Mrs. Potato Head before Then I started dancing around the room Then I danced around the large ballroom floor Discarding my broom, I began to bloom Then I started dancing around the room My youthful figure began a sweet bud Discarding my broom, I began to bloom No longer was I a rustic fat spud My youthful figure began a sweet bud Then I danced around the large ballroom floor No longer was I a rustic fat spud I looked like plump Mrs. Potato Head before Date: 07/27/2021 Photo: #3 I used rhyme zone Contest: Pantoum Rhyme 1 Sponsor: Eve Roper 1I looked like plump Mrs. Potato Head before 10 2Then I started dancing around the room 10 3Then I danced around the large ballroom floor 10 4Discarding my broom, I began to bloom 10 5 6Then I started dancing around the room 10 7My youthful figure began a sweet bud 10 8Discarding my broom, I began to bloom 10 9No longer was I a rustic fat spud 10 10 11My youthful figure began a sweet bud 10 12Then I danced around the large ballroom floor 10 13No longer was I a rustic fat spud 10 14I looked like plump Mrs. Potato Head before 10 I did check this on syllable counter and this is what I got so that is the reason I did not correct it.

Came to this beauty, Sara, I loved it when I read it, but it was only suppose to 10 syllable count per line. Hugs Eve

Eve, Thanks for dropping by. I suppose you are letting me know that I did not place so thank you. I checked the syllables but I guess I missed something. I can blame it on age or senior moments. Sara

Our grandson has started as he means to go on. The moment music is turned on he is up dancing or prancing. He is two and a half. If we could all dance our way through life and maybe sing as well? At least poetry keeps our fingers nimble. Take care David in NZ

David, I do enjoy seeing those little ones enjoy music dancing their own design. They are so precious and the years are so short when they are young. I think feeling the music be it dancing or just moving while seated lifts our spirits to a higher level. Thanks for dropping by. Sara

Victor, I was using one picture from the pictures she said to choose. I thought that I could write one or more about this picture. Thanks for stopping by. Sara

Kim, Yes, maybe I could do that if I danced around the ballroom floor with a nice young man who is teaching me to dance. Thanks for your visit. Sara
