Ruby Tuesday: Shy Guy
Boy in ruby, why so shy?
You are quite a handsome guy.
There’s no need to hide your face—
In this world you have a place.
Take your ruby shirt away
From your mouth—come out and say,
“I am not a turtle, no,
And my name’s not Yertle, so,
I will be as I was meant—
As my mom says, heaven-sent.”

Haha! I enjoyed the poetry. I guess he just doesn’t like cameras.
Either that, he smells something unpleasant hehehe..
Love the poem. 🙂
Haha. My son does that if he doesn’t like his picture taken.
I played too. Mine are here and here.
Great poem! I could never get away with wearing horizontal stripes!
Peace.
this reminds me of every photo of my son between ages 9 and 37!! LOL
Awwww! I liked your poem with the photo. He does look shy.
