On an ordinary morning
With a smooth and sunny sky,
She was forced face her mirror
With no friendly alibi
Fit for why
There were wrinkles on her face.

And her color? She was pale;
She had become a wracking wraith;
Of no avail her right to wrestle,
She had simply lost her faith;
On her face
This was written with great lines.

She was rankled by her wrinkles,
So she soaked them in a bath;
Then she patted chocolate sprinkles
On the objects of her wrath;
This could be
Why she's gained some extra pounds.

Could it be, I need a wrest? No, it's much more likely that I could use a good rest...

This is one of my twenty or so "philharmonic phonics" songs, this one with attention to words beginning with "wr."

I'm smiling at those wrinkles. But chocolate sprinkles? LOL. Make mine finely shredded sweet coconuts or almonds, if you please.

I enjoyed this very much... even if Hershey's would have to go into overtime production to fill my many wrinkles. *G* Well done!
