INSIDE OUTSIDE

Michael Edwards

INSIDE OUTSIDE

 

 

He wore his jumper inside out

and he thought it made him look thin.

But when they assured him it made him look stout

he wore outside in.

      • Michael Edwards

        Thanks PH - I am more a cartoonist but yes I have done illustrations in the past.

        • P.H.Rose

          Sorry I ment cartoons
          I've wrote a poem book for
          My grand kids and need
          Some cartoons of the mice
          Characters, I have the pics
          But try as I might they look
          Rubbish...

          • P.H.Rose

            I've extended the poem
            Ellie lapage, female mouse detective
            And part time opera singer...

            • P.H.Rose

              The book is going to be a
              Type of scrap book,
              On each page is a part of
              The poem story at the top
              And at the bottom
              In the middle is a cartoon
              Depicting the story...

                      Humor and art, Refreshing. Now a jumper, that's like a sweater, correct? Nice little village. - Phil A.

                        That's right - we call them jumpers in the UK - thanks for the comment.
