Southern Rose Poem by Shelly Wilkerson

Her dainty hand is finely gloved She strikes a timid pose All the gents have dearly loved This Carolina Rose
Mah Deah, Ya shoulda seen it! Mah Cotillion an' comin' out! Ah dazzled 'em with mah fem'nin chah-ms, The young men swooned about! "Marrah me", all the gentlemen said "Marrah me an' be mah wife. Ya kin' even bring yer mutha, Deah. Ah'll love ya all mah life!" But Ah was nary smitten once, Despite each winsome way. Ah decided to wait for Mistah Right, Who'll come along one day.

Rose is one of my favorite Shelly Wilkerson characters. When you get to know her through the poem, she makes you realize there is little pointing in waiting for perfection - chase down your dreams and make them come true!

The Slot Machine Queen Poem by Shelly Wilkerson

Pull that handle and watch 'em spin Yes'sir ladies, I play to win! Bells and whistles, flashing light Lady Luck's with me tonight! Keno, craps and black jack deals Vegas lights and real cheap meals Rare white tigers, poker hands Crooners, comics and rockin' bands Kids in college, proms and braces Made me wish for all four aces Nest egg withered, lost my stash Thought I'd end up 'trailer trash' Saved my quarters, saved my dimes Hoping for much better times Kids are grown, the house is paid Pretty soon I'll have it made. All my life I've paid the way And now it's time for mom to play So listen to my 'inside straight': I'm golden now and life is great!
