Let's take a seat where chill winds blow We don't care if our undies show We have nothing to hide Living on the wild side Life's much more fun in the front row

Lin....ah not worrying about things that don't matter in the grand scheme! Funny the way you put this. I'm thinking it's OK to sit in the front row of a comedy act as well. The comedian might pick on you, but that's part of the fun! POTD is another thing altogether. It's a lot of work answering all the comments for those inclined to do that. Smiles!

It is a lot of work, but I'd consider myself to be rude if I didn't. However, potd is not meant for my poetry, so it's a good thing I've never looked upon it as an honor based on some that have garnered the algorithm's choice... which I also don't honor.

If going on the rollercoaster that’s life, no harm alternating between the front and third row shenanigans, you have captured that exuberance perfect here Lin, a great Lim all round, cheers David

Oh, Karen. My mention of wild in the back row meant that the last car whips about a lot more. LOL

Dear Lin, You turned a gust of wind into a statement of freedom. Let the breeze blow and the laughter roll this is the kind of spirit that belongs in every good memory. This one made me grin loud enough to rattle the back row. Summer Blessings, My Dear Lin, Daniel

It's a whimsical Limerick based on an entry for a contest on another poetry site. I'm pleased you enjoyed it, Daniel. Watch out for that back row... it can be rather wild, too!
