I am far too wholesome to do anything shady.
I am an upright, straight-laced and morally pure lady.
I’m a domestic goddess, occasionally girlish,
who does not appreciate behavior that is churlish.
A knight in shining armor is what I hold out for,
I do not want just any man. I’m holding out for more.
If he would come along real soon, I think it would be nifty,
for I’d prefer my nuptials to occur before I’m fifty.
Prompt words today are wholesome, shady, occasion, churl, domestic. Image and retablo by jdb.
What a fun poem!

All make use of dolls handmade by a woman in San Miguel. I saw them hanging on a rack in a hardware store..all one-of-a-kind. I sorta think she bases them on tourists she sees..ha. I loved them, though, and I think I bought all of them.
