Don't Look Down

No likes yet ♦

When I was at a shop
the other day
I tried and bought
a skirt in mauve

As I went up to the counter
to pay
there was a cheap
jumper rail

Two ladies staring at me
made me look behind
thinking may have
caught my knickers in

As once in a testaurant
with a friend
I went to the toilet
wearing a pleated skirt then

Then we got half way up the road
and she kindly
told me my skirt
was tucked in
She was laughing
OMG

Now this

What's wrong!
My face pulled tight
no it's your
penguins on the coat

Thank goodness for that
another her friend
admired the hat

So I showed her
Title of an AbcTales
poem heading on me

Told her
p-p-p Pick Up A Penguin
is a poem
and will probably sign in
Was very interested

I have another coat see
now always
re-marks are on this one
so looks like
I am stuck with

Penguins
for tea
until the summer comes

Great story julie,

it's one of those situations that at the time you
feel so embarrassed at the time, but when you look
back, you can have a good laugh about it.

Thanks for the read.

Jenny.
