lol This is too cute what you have penned about the poker game with the skunk included. You used very good descriptive wording and very cute imagery. Blessings, Teri

A great play on words and perfect art work to accompany your clever poem, not played poker myself, but your poem brought the essence of the game to me, love Dolly x

Yes it's funny and I liked your choice of words and the framework you use. It's always difficult to review such a short piece of work but you never fail to please. Well done.




The skunk won the pot

at the seven-card stud game

'cause players folded

he had a poker face, but

four aces caused a big stink

Pheweee! I just thought I smelled some funk. Oh, I was right, it came from the skunk. Anyone foolish enough to gamble with a skunk, cannot complain when things begin to smell. Double down if you dare, the skunk won't really care, do whatever you are able, he will just raise his tail and clear the table.

I have a feeling this whole series may stink-haha. Great poem and I can see why he won. We live in the country and we saw a man with 2 large dogs walking the other day and right behind the last dog was a little skunk just waddling along like he belonged. The little guy then turned and went in front of my car just about the time the man looked and saw what was happening. We had a good laugh as he did not know the little guy was even tagging along. It gave him a bit of a start when he saw him that close though. And luckily when I stopped he didn't spray any of us.
