Quite A Fright!!! 😱

<Limerick Challenge Entry #1>

By Tiffany GordonPublished 3 years ago β€’ 1 min read

I ran across an old yearbook photo and had quite a fright...

I looked like an old Monster High doll who'd been in a huge fight...

All frizzy bangs and scary smile...

Recovering from this sight will take quite a while...

But... until then... I'll sleep with my trusty nite lite! πŸ˜‰
