I love poetry which makes me smile, and this one did. On seeing you sketch, I tried to remember where and when I posed for you, I then glanced in the mirror and stopped dreaming. A delightful and fun-filled write.

This Gertrude poem, Skinny Dipping, is a fun and active ditty that finds the speaker risking dangling extremities in the surf and the disdain of society as he naked streaking is not tolerated. Friends?

    Thank you Bill, I'm glad you found my little poem fun. I seem to like rereading it myself or may I just like looking at the picture.

Yes, I certainly got a kick out of this poem, so much so that it almost makes me think totally different about poetry. What is seemingly stiff and pompous to me. LOL. Thanks for sharing.

    Thank you Ric. I didn't think you'd find this one stiff or pompous.

Lol. Humorous topic and I could almost but not quite "see" everything. The metre sounds a bit complex but you have succeeded and there is a good flow. However I am left wondering about the outcome, after the unfortunate abandonment by friends! lol. Well done.

Thank you for reposting this with us. I'm not into skinny dipping. A few times I attempted to swim in lakes, I struggles because of fish nipping or touching me. LOL I enjoyed reading.

    Thank you Barbara. I've never skinny dipped. I'm too modest to get undressed the the ladies locker room. I would be upset if anything touched me in the water.

This work has reached the exceptional level

What a tense poem about running naked and being put in the cell. There was no one to bail the man out even though he was handsome as can be. Enjoyed your story-like poem.

    Thank you Rosemary. I have to read this poem every now and then. I"m not sure if it is the rhythm of the poem or the man that seems to draw me back to it. Thank you for the six stars.

It must have been one of those times, I fell off the face of the earth because I missed this one. I do remember Mike being in a coma for three months....but I am glad I caught it now. Quite the picture, and the words were so true... especially about friends disappearing when you really need them. WEll done and thanks for sharing.
Smiles, Carol

I loved this, Beth. That is such a fun meter and rhyme scheme, and you followed it perfectly. Quite a challenge. That was an amusing topic too, as how does he explain his way out of this in a believable manner? I guess the moral is, don't skinny dip in the ocean!
