Such a funny but still kind poem! Made me smile and laugh! Your flow was great, emotions present just as much! Perfectly written.

I do like your well penned poem, and perfect art work to accompany it. Personally, I am trying to get a jump on my New Year's resolution. Pregnant is now impossible for me, so I guess I'll have to stick to my diet.

Thank you Pattipac for your nice review of my poem. Yep, I'll be there with you. Come New Year's I'll be on that old diet track again. ;o(
Comment from Bayberry
What a hoot! This is an excellent biographical poem for the contest topic of feelings. Alas, too many of us can relate personally to the message. (I think I'll go take a walk this afternoon and burn off some calories.) :>

So when are you due? LOL Don't you hate that question? This was a fun poem with plenty of humor. And you did a great job with the imagery and rhyming.

Comment from Curtis Hatch
This is an interesting and entertaining poem about one's appearance. As the years go by, women can tend to accumulate the body fat in the abdominal area, leaving the appearance of ceaseless pregnancy. It appears it is an eternal struggle trying to cope with it. The graphics are excellent.
Unfortunately, some of aging men look pregnant.
Good luck with your contest.
Godspeed,
Curtis

Thank you Curtis for your review of my silliness. Yes, men can look rather round, too. But they are usually accused of "beer belly" whether they drink or not. LOL
Comment from lauraangela
This poem made me laugh! I can certainly identify with the 'baby weight' problem, and many specifics in this poem like the dreaded New Year's resolution hit home with me. The picture is great, too. The only thing that could be improved is the rhythm. Maybe by eliminating some unnecessary words like "the" and playing with the number of syllables on each line it would flow just a little more smoothly.

I believe you want "inquire". This gave me a nice laugh. I think everyone has at one point or another thought someone was pregnant when they weren't. T2

Thank you Terror2s for catching my "oops." I went back and changed it to inquire. I'm glad you found my poem funny.
Comment from Janice Canerdy
Boy, can I ever relate to this poem! I'm big around the middle too--have been for years (I'm 60). When I was in my late teens and early twenties, I was 21' in the waist!
This is well-written, clever, and amusing.

Thank you Janice for you review of my poem. Yep, in my 20's I was a "cutie." :O) Weight 100 lbs. and thin, thin, thin. I'm afraid never to be again...:O( But that don't keep me from beginning every New Year with the same old..."I'm going to lose weight and exercise!" :O)

Oh Doris...I don't think there's enough stripes on all the Zebras in Africa to help my poor condition.:O) I'm glad you found my poem funny. It was meant in serious jest. :o)

Great picture...did you draw it? Humorous poem...one that many readers will relate to. I enjoyed your playful tone as well as your end rhymes. You conveyed frustration and humor in a combination that is clever. Thank you for sharing, cinamon

Thank you cinamon for your kind review of my funny poem. No, I didn't draw the picture. I've had it for years. It seems to convey my perfect sentiment toward the scales. LOL
