Floating gently on a cloud....

Ok, y'all!! Try this one. Tell me in a poem the silliest thing that you have ever done/ the most embarassing moment that you have had...
What is your funniest "cringe worthy" moment thus far?

Hmmm....what is mine.....
Ok, here goes!!!

Ever had a haunting fear,
A nightly recurring event?
A scaredy cat was I in the past,
The dark to taunt me was sent!

I shivered under my sheets
Every sound was a huge big fear!
Now lemme tell you something
That happened to me one year.

I woke in the middle of the night,
Everything deathly silent.
I would have gone straight back to sleep,
But the "need to go" was violent!!

I tried to find the courage I lacked
To talk some sense into my messed up head.
But before I could make myself go to the bathroom,
I unfortunately wet my bed!!

*Yeah, this really happened! But only once mind you!! The most embarassing thing is, I was eleven when it happened....at boarding school in my first year...which was for the record ultra-vomit!!! I used to be terrified of the dark! Now, I kind of like it, I find it so peaceful! But hey, back then it was my nemesis!!!

Ok, I have 'fessed up to my biggest embarassement ever, what is yours?

C'mon Passions!! Make me laugh out loud!!!
And while you are at it, don't hold the above incident against me!!!

Love y'all as ever...many hugs and much love,
Lizzie

Hmm..Well, this was certainly a cute poem.   That would be embarrassing.   As for me, I think I'll pass the challenge. I'm a clutz mostly, so my silly moments come often. I'm also very shy, so at those times, the memory is not very fun for me.  Most of the time anyways.

 Nothing can deter a poet, for he is actuated by pure love. Who can predict his comings and goings? "Thoreau"

When I was just a girl of eight
I decided to arm wrestle all the boys
I was winning, though I never had a doubt

When the last boy in the class
Challenged me to his arm.
He was the hard to beat
And I PUSHED on

I struggled hard, and I did
win because a loud sound of
FAAAAA         R       T     T
did permeate the air ----ffffffffffaaaartttt
and I won by his laughing and the
whole class giggling did start
'til they were all rolling on the floor.

This is it ESP - no more emabarrassing
tales shall I share ------my face was
red and I wanted to sink right into
the ground --- wish that was my only
embarrassing moment through life.
But, they still come 'round --)
