Said, Tour de France athlete
boosting his body with drugs was not offbeat
His 'win at all cost' odyssey
made him, a world prodigy
and the topic of many "tweet-a-tweet"
Edited by Candy (11/03/12 08:56 PM)
Edit Reason: with suggestions from AC & JJ

Loc: Lower Aberdeen, MississippiGood one, Candy, topical and nicely constructed.
except...
I like your "tweet-a-tweet" ending best.
Because in the e-world the term "tete-a-tete" is as passe as "passe"
and...
You forgot to leave us two new words.

get back here until evening time, her time, maybe
if you all want to work on it take her poem and
take two words from it:
maybe
tete-a-tete and passe
Just a suggestion._________________________

Yes...I did.
Prodigy and Protégé commonly confused words
And while I'm there...I may as well tweak last line again 'cause then it will be perfect
Thanks guys.

Take the chair lift or grab the rope tow.
Put your mask on your face
And your flippers in place.
It's a great day to snorkel in snow!
