SC...Grambo

Missing image

I've always been a badass

nothing I won't try

Give me a little challenge

and I will do or die

 

It all began as a tomboy

no sisters in my way

Competeing with my brothers

I always had my say

 

Our games consisted of football

and throwing dry manure pies

If you didn't stay alert to this

you'd get hit by surprise

 

We were always into mischief

and gosh did we have fun

Playing practical jokes on our friends

then we would laugh and run

 

My attitude is agressive

and I carefully plan my day

When I decide to make a move

you don't stand in my way

 

My life has been long

with a lot of rough and tough

Still you see, I wear bluejeans

and don't stand for any guff

 

I'm a Grambo at the senior center

the patients put me in charge

Rules get too hard for us sometimes

with a yell and raised cane,I barge

 

Independent, cool and badass

I'm proud as I can be

I've never had a run-in with the law

Plead innocent, don't you see

    This was very funny. I enjoyed this very much. I thought it described what an independent, cool, badass old woman was in her day and still was when she was old. I haven't had any submissions into this contest that were funny, but this one takes the cake.

    I especially liked the verse:

    I'm a Grambo at the senior center

    the patients put me in charge

    Rules get too hard for us sometimes

    with a yell and raised cane I barge


    Nice funny write and keep on writing.

    Good luck in my contest.
