Linda Bella Poem by Belle Wassermeister
Linda Bella
My name is Linda Bella;
my father calls me Belle.
I used to be his little girl,
but how my size did swell!
My thyroid is all out of whack;
they've tried to regulate,
so I can blame it on hormones
and not something I ate!
I weigh about five hundred pounds
(you were afraid to ask)
but I feel good, and carry on
and don't fear any task.
My husband doesn't mind at all;
he truly is the best.
He says it really turns him on
to climb Mount Everest!
Those Twin Peaks never slow him down;
he gets right to the top
and, though this writing's been such fun,
I think it's time to stop!
Write on courageous and lovely poetss... rare is the person who can bravely confront the world in his/her own terms! 10+
Yes, courageous, funny, talented - I agree with the other comments. “Twin peaks” indeed! Hats off to your husband who obviously appreciates you for who you are.
Great are the persons who take their shortcomings as a fun, greater are the spouses who don't mind such shortcomings, and greatest is the person who does not laugh on others, if he is in mood of laughing he laughs on himself. Loved this nice poem.
