Poetic Thursday: What Would You Do?

Welcome to the first Poetic Thursday in May.  Each Thursday, we join our friend, Pam, and her kitties, Teddy and Angel Sammy, at Two Spoiled Cats and we share poetry.

Last week, they gave us this photo for our inspiration:

Here’s my poem:

What Would You Do?

People were laughing and stopped to stare.
Was the guy embarrassed: did they even care?

Was he hurt? Did they have any advice?
Even a kind word would have been nice.

But I can’t say that they were to blame:
I probably would have done the same.

“I don’t really mean to be rude,
but exactly how did this happen, dude?”

  2. WHY???? Obviously, still a child at heart. Made me think of licking the pole in “A Christmas Story”.  Hoping no one will see! Good treatment of picture in your poem. 

  3. Mom had a good chuckle at your poem. We think everybody is wondering, “what was this guy thinking” and “how did he do that?” Have a delightful weekend.
