Bubble bath

It's sudsy in the tub and warm.
The bubbles have a friendly form.
The room is quiet, clean and bright.
A Lowenbrau near on my right
stands by in case I start to thirst.
Perhaps I should have disrobed first.

Well, for all the critiques

Well, for all the critiques you give so religiously, my dear.... you should get naked, at least for your bath if not in your poetry. This one leaves a lot to be desired, if you know what I mean. ~A p.s. "I have had a bland and colorless existence. I thank the gods for that." Do you? Really?

Oh, yeah, it's a dreadful bit of verse, a grate peom

I wrote this one nearly twenty years ago. It was dreadful then, too, and silly. Interesting how the years change my reading of it. I no longer drink beer---it makes my nose run horribly. I haven't had a bath in fifteen years. On the other hand, this one still takes up space where a better poem could be, had I written one better. Perhaps I post this one here and now because I won't MIND watching this one being ignored. (Does that sound bitter? It is, a little). Thanks for reading it, Kaila. Oh, and if you want to do that one-star thing, I will have NO objection to register. That second line especially sucks. It was all I could do to copy it faithfully, without editing. Perry

LOL, Perry. What does that

LOL, Perry. What does that mean, then, that I would vote for it? There is no accounting for time or taste. Especially since I wrote my own version of it. ;-) ~A "What we do for ourselves dies with us. What we do for others and the world remains and is immortal." Albert Pine

Right you are

Please continue to enjoy 'being a poet." I shall continue with my program. I am saddened, but only somewhat, that you feel it necessary to be scornful. You are relieved of that burden herewith. I am quite capable of finding my own shortcomings---and I'm a lot less nasty about it. Perry
