Pray for her to find a big enough bra. Or two king-size gauze pads. She knows her erasers are showing. This is not the first stiff breeze she has ever felt. To me, that is trashy. I wish this were a world that did not revolve around men's libidos (not you, dear) and their feelings of entitlement. But it does. And it is very poor manners and a spit at the Pope to be displayed this way. Karen :-)

    I had a lot of people get mad at me over this post. They thought that I was putting down the Pope. And I can assure you that was never my intention. Male or female, I don't think anyone could have not looked. :-) Like you said, I think it's trashy, and I can assure you that gal would have never gotten any attention from me. But even I would have had to look. LOL. I appreciate YOU!

    But it is a funny picture. :-)

    Nobody else thought it was funny. I got blasted for this one.

I didn't find that this was photoshopped but I wish the Catholic Church would allow the priests to marry. The Orthodox Church allows priests who are married to keep their married status.
Apparently, you had enough judges who enjoyed your humor! Congrats again!!

    I don't think it was photoshopped. And I don't see anything wrong with the priest taking a peek at something that would be almost impossible not to notice. I mean, maybe he wasn't looking at her in a sexual way, just admiring. LOL. I agree with you that priests shouldn't be expected to spend their lives alone. But as you can tell, I'm not Catholic either. Thanks for taking time to read another of my silly little poems. I appreciate you and your comments every day! Thanks, Helen!

    Hello, Helen,

    Well, as you might have noticed, I've never written a book. Actually, I've written three, but they've never been posted here. I did add a chapter to Gayle's (G&J publishing or whatever her company's name was) book right after I came to this site. I don't know why she asked, but she tried so hard to build my confidence, so I couldn't say no. I can't even remember what she called her book. My chapter was something like "Do the Write thing." But that was when I first started trying to write. I read my first book at 37, my second at 47. Oh, I read "how to manuals" or things I needed to know, but never fiction for pleasure. I have written a few five or six-part stories, each listed as single stories. But, honestly, I couldn't ask you or anyone to spend valuable time reading my playthings. As with all the nice things you say and do, it's so kind of you to offer. A great big hug and a little peck on the forehead! And please, don't take my gestures disrespectfully. You're a good person who pulls at my heart strings! As much for how you bless others, as how you do me. Much appreciated!

    Ric

    You're always so self-effacing, Ric! Anyway, perhaps another humorous poetry contest will inspire you...💖

    Most of us are insignificant to the biggest pictures, we just need to keep offering our tiny parts and hope they do some good. :-)

Thanks for sharing your fun in this 5-7-5, and congratulations on winning the contest. Yes, Papa obviously has an eye for art, especially when the object is so well-endowed! Still chortling- Joan

    Thanks, Joan E., for your kind and generous review. Sometimes a man just has to do or say something silly. I paid for this blunder dearly. I made a few people so mad that they never had anything else to do with me. LOL. I was expecting your review to be for the story I have posted right now, and was honestly shocked when I realized the piece you were reviewing. Thanks again, much appreciated!

Ooo my goodness, how did you ever find this picture? It is what it is. Even the highest monkery status has sexual desires when forced. Congratulations on taking home the winning ribbon. Nice work.

This work has reached the exceptional level

This 5-7-5 writing prompt deserves 6 stars on the picture alone. Great presentation for the words given. Very creative, funny, and real.

    Thanks so much for taking your time to read my silly, little poem. I had a lot of fun with this, but took some major bashing from a few who thought I was being derogatory toward the Pope, which was definitely not my intention. I mean, I'm a Bible believing Christian, and I can't imagine any human being who wouldn't have to stop and admire those boobs, male, female, or even the Pope. Your kind words and extra-special six-star review are greatly appreciated. :-)

OmG, Ric Myworld! If I had balls, I would be laughing them off right now! This is the funniest damn picture I've ever seen. Shameless hussy (with really pretty tits! lol). Very easy to see why this work won! Very deservedly!!! God bless and hugs, Susanne

    Susanne, my dear, I'm so glad you stopped by to read my silly poem and it made you laugh. Of course, if didn't make everyone laugh, bringing in one-star reviews and some nasty remarks. But I'm a big boy and can take whatever they dish out, knowing damn well that there was nothing negative posted by me. They all can lie and say what they want, but there isn't a man or woman, including the Pope, who wouldn't have stopped in awe or shock to glance that those puppies. LOL! Thanks for taking time to read my poem. Your kind words and generous review are greatly appreciated. Glad you liked it! :-)

Hello Ric,

Okay .... so where do I begin???

Excellent disclaimer! In this age of photoshop, one can never be sure.

And you won ... my heartiest congratulations, friend. Your determination and perseverance have surely paid off. I'm hoping I'll have more time in the fall for writing and reviewing and look forward to reading more from you.

Have a wonderful weekend.

Until next time (still chuckling!),

Sonali

    Thank you so much, Selina, my friend, for stopping by to read my silly poem. I wish everyone had chuckled a little for this piece, but a few reviewers, like the one who gave me one star, didn't find it amusing. Of course, I can't help it if they have dirty minds (LOL!). Your kind words and generous review are greatly appreciated. It's always so nice to see you around and I'm glad I could make you smile. :-)

Hi Ric, I have totally missed this hilarious 5-7-5 poem. It is so funny, and congratulation on you well deserved win. Poor man, the Pope I mean. Who wouldn't look at that pair. I bet you have received a few remarks. I thought I had fanned you. If I haven't then I will as I want to review your work. All the best. Ulla:))

    Oh, yes, I've have sure received some remarks, alright, and some one-star reviews and tongue lashings. LOL! Nothing I didn't expect. The picture could be photo shopped, the camera caught the Pope at exactly the right time, or can't anyone imagine that the Pope would have had to at least glance at those puppies. Personally, I can't imagine man or woman wouldn't have noticed. Thanks you so much for taking time to read my poem. Your kind words and generous review are greatly appreciated. Glad it made you laugh. Some of those sour pusses would rather fine something to get mad about. LOL! :-)

Ric,

Haha, yeah, that's quite a photo and you did a great job
on your 5-7-5 entry. Very entertaining. Nice 'p' alliteration
and no apologies needed for me. Hey, I read the Jesuit
oath and it is evil as hell itself.

Good luck,
Linda

    Thank you so much, SweetLinda, for taking time to read my poem. Yes, I never dreamed that I would get so many to act so nasty over, actually, a very innocent picture and poem. I mean, I can't imagine any man or woman who wouldn't have had to at least glance at those puppies. LOL! Your kind words and generous review are greatly appreciated. :-)

He is probably wondering why didn't he see these as a young man than maybe his life might have went in another direction. The poem is funny and naughty at the same time. I have a stinky feeling this is Photoshop but so what it gives us a laugh and you the inspiration to have to the humor. I'm not surprise this is the contest winner. For once I agree with the decision.

    Thank you so much, Muffins, for taking time to read my poem. Like you, I suspect the picture is photo shopped or the Pope was just shocked by the revealing top. Of course, I can't imagine a male or female who would have to at least grab a quick peek. LOL! Your kind words and generous review are greatly appreciated. :-)
