There was this floozy rather old
Loves to canoodle with the bold

Then her beauty they would extol
Bri, I read several times. First reaction- -said to myself, Too true. After a second and third reading, the humour came bubbling to the surface. I reread and began to scroll down....and went some innocence, falling victim to.... Great humour, Bri!
well, i FINALLY found the photo i was searching for! ! ! i'll send the link to MJ Lemon soon, before PH erases the page to protect the innocent. :)
i have seen much younger (i think) women with eyes made similarly. aging can be tough on egos. and why not try to look one's best! ? she may just look like 'another old woman' without (so much) makeup, and is trying to save some of her youth. bri ;)

Oh..... my! She never realizes that her time is over! I wonder from where you gather such apt pictures! You pen such humorous limericks! Stay on here, dear friend Loke!
This is all just humour and no offense intended. The picture is probably that of a drag queen and not a woman. Thanks Valsa, and I will look for more similar pictures to continue the fun.
