Haha what a clever bit of poetic word play here and I'm sure well walked feet are the happiest. Tell that to my 11 year old tech head son, will ya?!! LOL

I know when I'm standing on mine all day they don't necessarily appreciate it but when they have a good work out they feel well travelled, albeit a little weary.

I like the dual use of "bare" and "souls" and you were even clever enough to include the foot. Not an easy feet haha

LOVED. No fuckin sixes though.

Hugs P

    LOL I DO get you for sure...but I have a confession to make...I think I had you confused with someone else. I thought your name was Janet LOL

    Thats a far cry from the other haha

    Don't worry though, no one ever gets my name right either. They always drop that second bloody P and it pisses me to tears.

    I mean when I wrote it at the bottom of my message I mean FFS how ignorant are some people?!

    I think like five people in my life have spelled it correctly first time.
    No one gets it right here...Okay, there are like two people here that spell it right.
    But the rest have no idea and don't care.
    Heads up their arses I'm afraid.

    I sometimes don't even feel like i have a fuckin name LOL

    I just wrote this jingle a couple of days ago for all the nimrods who can't seem to get it...

    ahem

    NAME
    ------

    It's how the saying goes
    What's in a name?...

    Well there's a string of letters
    and there's nine...

    Not eight I'm telling you,
    What is this game?...

    That's someone elses handle pal
    Not mine!...

    So why's it quite okay
    to leave one out?...

    You tryna piss me off?
    Is your ass wise?

    This fact I'm going to have
    to bring about

    My name spelled THERE before
    your fucking eyes!

    hahaha
    You can use this if you want LMAO

    I'm kidding.
    I see P all over it. No touchy! haha

    You totally get me ... so refreshing. ~Dxx aka Janet.... don?t ever call me that!
reply by closetpoetjester on 18-Nov-2017
    LMAO
    When I read your email...I thought...am I looking in the fucking mirror? haha

    Cept I'm not called Janet LMAO

    For the record, I'm glad you're a kindred spirit who can appreciate the constant name debacle.

    In spite of it being a bit ridiculous, I DO take it quite personally. I KNOW you get me on that.

    Don't worry D...we MORE than measure up and DON'T you fuckin forget it! LOL

    BTW I think you may have a cut and paste issue or your inverted commas like being question marks LOL

    I thought you were questioning what you'd written before LOL

    I couldn't quite decipher it.
    Now I got it.

    Lol... so pleased you ?get it? and ?get me?.

    Yep. "Got it" LOL

    Just lettin' ya know...

    Ahh, bless you....and that?s not for sneezing. Your words mean a lot to me and remind me it?s not ME that has the issue but them with hearing, attention to detail, manners, respect, thoughtfulness...gosh this is when they get my name wrong.
    I hear you loud and clear girlfriend and yes...it is like talking to myself when talking to you..not in a split personality way but in the - on the same page - way. : -) xxx

reply by closetpoetjester on 18-Nov-2017

    Do what suits mate.
    But tell your phone from me he has an identity issue haha

Wow! I sure would NOT want to be judging this contest - this is not only charming it's clever/witty as heck with the play on words! What a story you tell in only six words, and it inspires, too - an actual moral! VERY impressive. Six stars worth of impressive, but sadly, I'm out. Let me say this, though - I read a lot of prose as a rule, so I'm very careful about awarding sixes to small poems, as tough as they can be to write - but my friend, I'd slap a six on this so fast , you'd be dizzy.

And of course there is a play on the word souls/soles as well. Thanks for leaving me something to comment on. Well I have soles on my feats, sorry, feet. What fun this is.

    Pantygynt, thank you for your lighthearted review on my short six word poem. Would you believe there were one of two that did not see the pun...even after my end notes. Oh well, I did have fun writing it. ~DD

So true. If we don't take chances to achieve, we never will succeed. Successful people, they say, have faced failure several times before attaining their goal. Much luck in the contest. Marilyn

This work has reached the exceptional level

Not easy to tell a story in six words; I did. I liked your take on being active in the feats that challenge you. We can sit in the sand or get up and lend a hand. Best wishes for the contest XXK.
