Lol! Well, now you have chosen quite the photo for your Gertrude poem but I'm sure Gertie won't mind. I would think the only place that's safe to skinny dip is a pool among a nudist colony. Thanks for sharing this from 11 years ago. Wow!

Thank you Helen. I'd never seen but one contest that called for a Gertrude. Most people say they never heard of one hut I person from England was familiar with them.

While I've heard the meter in poems before, I never knew it was called a Gertrude poem--live and learn. This one made me laugh--nice artwork that certainly illustrates your words well (very well-lol!). Cleverly written and very enjoyable.

I take the blame for whatever went wrong because you seemingly have boarded my demented train
Very unlike the Shelby I have read
It seems it needs a summary verse

Thank you Tom. Since you're taking the blame, you are the perfect person to writie the summary verse. Go ahead. Make my day. LOL

I would if I could get my dust bunnies out of the way, but wo. They have cluttered my mind so much wherever one is pushed it forces another into place.
Comment from davisr (Rhonda)
A hilarious poem, Beth!! It is well written and just flows like a song. I found myself saying it like a nursery rhyme, lol. It was really well done. In your notes, you put you wrote it in 2024, but I think you meant 2014. I don't remember it back then, though I was on here a lot at that time, so your safe, but even if I had, I would have enjoyed reading it another time.
Take care, and thanks for the giggle!

Comment from Debbie D'Arcy
Well this is a fun verse, Beth, even though I can't seem to get my head around the format (getting a bit late here in the UK). So I'm going to forget the explanation and enjoy the wonderful flow and humour here. Mind you, I have to try and peel my eyes off the visual which is very distracting. I think you meant an earlier date than 2024 (in the notes). And I still don't understand about re-posting for contests. I thought that was verboten! But well done and good luck! Debbie

I had not heard of a Gertrude poem (that I recall), but I really enjoyed this poem on skinny dipping! It was cute and charming, and I liked your rhythm and rhymes. Thank you for reviving this post! Best wishes to you.

Thank you Jess. It was fun to write a Gertrude. Not many people had heard of it but someone from England was familiar with it. I like trhe rhythm too.

Poor boy, when one needs a friend, how much on needs them, then when someone needs to pay the rent, or in this case bail you out, but I think with those muscles, it might be a female lawyer wanting to be on your case, an excellent post Beth, beautifully written, blessings Roy

Thank you. Yes, sometime the ones we think or best buddies are just fairweather friends. When they are needed, they disappear.
