Lady Problems -- a Flash 60 poem
Lady Problems
Lady on the flying trapeze
Circus came and we left
My love, secrets are out
Came to fruition I thought
Went to London
for Trapeze School
Played more than studying
Fell in love with a taxi driver
You can't have two lovers
or, neither should know
Trapeze flyer discovered
she flew the coup
Be sure you've got wheels
Today I'm linked with Mama Zen with the Real Toads in the
Imaginary Garden, on her post, Words Count With Mama Zen
Her instructions: "Step right up and let the following vintage photos take you back to the circuses of days gone by. Be delighted! Be amazed! Be inspired . . . and write a poem of 60 words or less." My work is exactly 60 words including the title.

Yeah, you'll definitely need some wheels!
Never discount the worth of a good get away car!
LOL. "Be sure you got wheels." Quite the story, Jim!
circus trapeze and imagination....good combination !!
This is 'scat' and I like the rhythm.
Having wheels is ALWAYS a good thing.
...life can become a circus :)
tsk tsk....If you can't be with the one you love, love the one you're with. :)
The wheels make all the difference if you make such a choice.
Ha! Watch out--but she must swing back--you can drive away! Thanks, Jim. k.
