Rachelle,
Sweet sentiment in this poem. You're image of being rescued has a nice romantic tone.(My luck, my lifeguard would let me drown lol.

I like the photo.

Excellent club entry, Rachelle.
Best wishes,
Cindy

    Mine would teach me to swim so he wouldn't have to be bothered rescuing me anymore. Hahaha. (Kidding; I know to swim!)

    Thanks for the cute review. xoxox

This dodoitsu, S.O.S., has the proper formatting and shows a concern for another which also requires the reunion of bodies to check out the tools of the trade for effectiveness.

I never realized there were so many styles of poetry. I grew up in the fifties when the most common type of poetry was the rhyming style. I do love to read well written poems, and yours are all of that.

Hello Rachelle,
your wit is on display gal. Well done! One has to hope that the lifeguard isn't too tired after having swum across the lagoon to give that lifesaving function. Wouldn't that be the pits?
Have a blessed day.
Tom

    I think that narrator's not going to be taking "Not tonight, Dear; I'm too tired." for an answer!!

    Thanks for the delightful review! xoxo

"Keeping the relationship afloat
s.o.s." But if I chose to sink then could I be rid of you? (DO NOT s.o.s.!)
"hoping you swim home to me" Hey, doesn't your lifeguard lover have a boat to work with? Or is he made to swim about all day?
"I need mouth-to-mouth" Get a mirror. Or try drowning yourself.
Ah, another satisfying review of love! *Kisses!* :-))

Rachelle -I have a couple of your books on my bookshelf and enjoyed each of them. Still your wide variety of writing talent always surprises me. Thanks for the poem's explanation as I did not know how to rate because I did not know what to expect. As always, you did a great job. ann

I loved this. It is like being hit over the head with a fooz bat. You know you got hit, but there is no pain.
It made me smile, it made me laugh. You personally brightened my day. :-)

You've met all the requirements here, right down to the focus on love and work and a comical twist:-) Because you're an over-achiever, you had to have both love and work and not one or the other, lol!

A lovely presentation; I hope your lovers lifeguard shift ends soon.

    Yeah, this pining away from across the lagoon is getting old!

Very cleverly constructed. The thoughts are well expressed, and contain wit and humour. Over here, some young women have been known to pretend they were in difficulties in the surf, so they would be rescued by the bronzed Aussie lifeguards.
Well done in this poetic style.

Hahaha.... I know what you mean.... I love mouth to mouth from a handsome guy.

Excellent entry for the DODOITSU POEM event. Your words flow nicely and the grammatical connection between lines are very smooth. Beautiful presentation. Good comical ending. Perfect!
