Plastered across your screen
enveloped in toothpaste smile
if you use it every day
you'll be happy with who you are.
Sauntering and skinny
Adonis linked to her arm
all there for you, reach out
you'll be happy with who you are.
The shampoo guarantees
hair that sparkles, flowing in the breeze
buy it and we promise
you'll be happy with who you are.
Slip into our slinky lingerie
it's a must to cling to those curves
wear it and you'll not be sorry
you'll be happy with who you are.
Some of us have crooked teeth
and bestowed with well rounded curves
hair that tangles in that breeze
and the one hundred per cent cotton jammies.
Yet we're the ones surrounded
with loving family and friends
because it's what inside that's seen
hearts smile, we are happy with who we are.

well rounded curvers he he. this was an amazing take on the prompt and i loved it because it was so true and down to earth. the advertisements promise us beauty and a happy personailty...but it cant...because only our personailitys can make us happy. this world resolves to much around looks. well done and best of luck
