This is very funny! I love the "Patsy decline" wit... This is how I feel on every carnival ride ever... (okay, maybe once around on the carousel, but that is my limit)--
Great meter and rhyme and perfect photo!

Like they say, real life can be either scarier or funnier than made up stuff. You just have to find the right topic.
Thank you very much, Karenina for your awesome review and comments.
I am glad you caught my Patsy declined joke. Not everyone did. But a lot did.
I actually rewrote this after I could see that not everyone knew what an
inversion table is. That was initially the topic of mine. But once I changed a few things it really took off. Thanks again.

Sorry my reviews are coming late. But they ARE coming!

I know you are behind right now but i am trying to help a mutual friend who needs just a couple more to get to an atb. I already helped him get to recognized but I am doing a poem right now for Kimbob who has been away for a while and needs one more for "The Old Man in the Mirror"

I know. I am so busy with so much stuff. Trying to help Lisa too as she has been gone and sick, but my work at home is not done. And I was going to have all my thank you cards written today. Oh well. LOL.

Comment from Bill Schott
This poem, Topsy Turvy, presented with four ABCB-rhymed quaterns, shouts out in dismay about a day when everything seems backwards, inside out, and upside down.

Hey, Kace, thank you so very much for the lovely review, words and the honor of your six stars. It truly means more to me than you could possibly know. Love, Debi
Comment from Sallyo
Ha! Love this one, and the pic suits it perfectly. Patsy declines to comment, I'm sure. The last line explains the whole thing to perfection. Good luck with the contest. I think this is a strong contender.

Comment from Andrea Kepple
Well done fulfilling the requirements for the contest. I love your poem, I may have been influenced by the photo being a cat mom.
Your poem is wonderfully whimsical. The poetic form fits what was required, obviously.
I like how you painted several pictures all reinforcing the emphasis that things have been flipped upside-down. Thank you for sharing your poem.

Andrea, thank you so much for the fun review and comments. It was a lot of fun to write, but the truth is I get car sick and go through all those things, so carnival rides are now out. I tried to go with the grandkids and it is no fun having them see me get sick. LOL... and yes, wasn't that cat cute?
Thanks again.
Comment from ESOSTINE
That was quite a funny one in deed and masterly penned. It reminded me of my first experience taking one of those crazy rides. All I could do was to continue shouting with flushed face to manage my fears. Well done, dear.

Esostine, you are so kind. Thank you for the fun review and comments. Amazing how many also feel sick from some rides. LOL, of course I get car sick just riding in the back seat. So going on rides with the grandkids wasn't too great for them to see grandma getting sick. Haha!
Comment from June Sargent
This is a fun response to the challenge! I personally am not a fan of carnival rides. Too dizzy! So I can relate to the topsy turvy dilemma! Well done.

Hi June, thank you so very much for the kind review and comments. You are always so sweet and I appreciate it so very much.
Comment from Michele Harber
This fits the contest challenge perfectly. The poem is fun, nonsensical, and definitely describes an upside-down day. I love that, while following the end-line rhyme scheme, you added those wonderful mid-line rhymes that give the poem additional bounce and add to the nonsensical feel. Good luck in the contest with this high-quality entry.
