Lessons from the Prom

Flowers made of toilet paper;
Swirling chips of light;
Awkward social caper;
Down in the gym tonight.
You had to pick a partner;
From way across the floor!
The lowered light and hampered sight;
Threw caution to the fore.
What we see we may not get;
Is what some learned from dances;
As distance melts we might regret;
Our premature advances!!
The photos tell the truth you know;
Moms albums take us back;
We all blame the photographer;
For attributes we lack!
Whether in a spangled ball gown;
Or in a crisp tuxedo;
Most of us look best I’ve found;
When viewed, from say,
Toledo.
