True Confessions

Confessions aren't easy but here I go I'm about to tell you what you don't know I secretly dance at home all alone I like karaoke with a microphone Singing and dancing I ain't got no skills Still it's way better than swallowing pills As I perform I still have one great fear If I sing to loudly others will hear Sometimes I practice at home in the shower Enjoying myself for many an hour Maybe one day I will be good enough Then I won't be afraid to strut my stuff Until that distant day please leave me alone I will keep up practice to improve my tone John Travolta moves, singing like the King Imagine all the joy one day I will bring Please keep my secret, you made me confess Others could be worse, perhaps they cross dress Confessions not easy secrets come out Now you will learn what Soupers are about. Sweet Anne's Confessions of a Poetry Souper's contest.

That is my secret as well. Only my children and husband know it. And they say: Please, please, stop singing. Now I sing only when I am alone in the house. Lovely poem!
