with that casual glance
over your shoulder
i should have wondered….

Want to read more? You can. My poem she’s no betty grable is available to read at the Tupelo 30/30 project page.
This prompt is brought to you by the wonderful Pleasant Street whose site Are You Thrilled never disappoints. You need to head over there and listen to her purr some of her poems. You really will be thrilled.
That’s seven days out of thirty under the old belt-a-roonie. That means there are twenty three left. And I got some open spots. Go to Tupelo Press’ Project 30/30 page for more details.

OK, wow. That might be one if your best.
Thanks very much! I’m interested in what makes this stand out to you.
Let me give that some thought over the next day or so.
I love this! My favorite of all your latest ones…
Thank you!
This one definitely leaves a lasting impression!
Thanks! I wish I knew why 😃
Nice one, sir.
Thank you very much.
Oh! a perfect rendering. (K)
Thank you, Kerfe.
Marvelous–I was transported to 1944
I’m so glad you liked it. I hope you read the other comments. This one garnered a strong reaction. 😘
Hmm…did you wear stockings while you wrote it? Maybe that’s why
I am appalled that I can’t reply with a stocking or leg emoji.
I’m happier with words. I despise emoji so I am happy! But you did not answer my question–and I meant that about recording your poem before I record my own–
Well, I wasn’t wearing stockings unless you’re really old fashioned and consider socks stockings.
I can’t believe you haven’t embraced emoji. I’m going to have to “write” a poem of just emoji. Emojis. Whatever.
Okay, I’m game. I’ll record mine, maybe even tonight. Bring on the sultry.
Cool 🙂 I look forward to it
Re emoji I just love words that much. I’m still reeling over the 2015 word of the year from Oxford
Ha ha ha!
