This could be a reflection of someone's life as they realize how happy they are to be alive. It is spontaneous, uplifting, happy and fun! I get a warm fuzzy feeling as I read it and the photos are great! Wonderful job.

    Welcome Kerry! Have we exchanged notes previously. I'll need to read some of yours. Suggestions?

Hi Tom,
I like the use of many lines of mono rhymes. I shows how much of what we do rhymes. I assume fairways is alluding to golf. I like how Friday is all caps to show how important it is for most workers.
I like that the title has a sexual overtone as does the last word in the bigger font but the other things aren't.
Keep writing and stay healthy
Joan

    Appreciatively yours. Yep, fairways = golf courses. Only activity I do any longer besides write -write- write and of course review.

    No problem, Tom, I am not a golfer, but my parents were and my brother and brother in law are. I read, do app based work outs and do crossword and jigsaw puzzles.

I really enjoyed this, Tom, and share many of the same turn-ons as you. That's a list of the turn-ons of a very happy man. I loved how all your lines rhymed with 'a'. If all these turn-ons rhymed with just one sound, think of how many you must have in total! Jim

Another beautiful poem Tom. I love the rhythmical nature of this one. You have managed to build excitement and then, slow the reader down to a warm, slow, sentimental conclusion both with words and font. J

    I had not written much rhyming pieces recently. Thought let's have a go. Did. It has been surprisingly accepted as well done. Thanks for the read and comment.

nicely done list of things that turn you on. I might have made it a more explicit at the end what kind of woman turns you on and what situation turns you on but that is just me.

    I had not written much rhyming pieces recently. Thought let's have a go. Did. I also wanted to keep it to one page for my binder. Lastly, married for 44 years I have no eyes for anyone else but the woman who stood my me all dem years.
    It has been surprisingly accepted as well done. Thanks for the read and comment.

Foreplay? you definitely may add that, an excellent summary of turn On's, I particularly like your last 3 lines, though splitting fairways ranks very high, very well written****kahpot

I love the girls with the hats.
Prickly pears
We call sabres.
Did you know
If you're born in Israel you're called a Sabres
The prickly people of the bible.
Funny ha?
It's nice to show your appreciation of life's little/ big gifts.

    Weird, no
    I did it professionally for nine years as a weather-guesser in the Navy. I do it (forecasting) better than tv spokesperson.
    Interesting notes on sabres. We?re the 3 musketeers of Dumas Jewish? 😜😳🤪👀😇🙈

    What a Dumass question.
    They must have been. in Israel they still call 3 kids messing around . The three mmusketerim.
    Dumass- it just asks for it, doesn't it?

Your poem was well-presented, Tom. I liked the mostly monorhyme.
Your picture collage worked well with your descriptive words. I liked the
short lines. They added to the smooth flow and pacing. I could picture
most everything.
Thanks for sharing, Jan

How do you make them into a collage of photos like that? Do you set out the photos and take a photo to make one new photo to post? I'd like to know how to do that. This poem could almost be a monorhyme entry ... it's a fun one, an enjoyable read, so well done.

    Thanks. I have a couple thousands of photos I snapped over fifteen years, and edited. I use pic monkey app that has a collage block. I select a collage set up, in this case 5 blocks, select the pictures to fill them, download to FanStory where I stow related subjects and after properly sizing select one for the selected entry.

    Thank you. I'll take a look at that app. Sounds good.
