IDEAL, MEASURE, TEETER

FOR Three Word Wednesday

IDEAL, MEASURE, TEETER


The ‘Swingometer’
The ideal teeter measure
As seen on TV

For ideal results
Without that ‘teeter’ effect
Measure twice, cut once

Teeter Totter Scale
Measure of life’s ups and downs
Ideal wedding gift

    If I had to measure this I would say it's teetering on the brink of ideal!

    Just someone; Three essentials to keep a balance.
    Jeeves; Mostly fun really.
    CJT; Ther's always one that seems way out of place with the other two.
    PS; As I said, a bit of fun - but many a true word spoken in jest...

    Thanks Gautami; Small measures, moderation, and the teeter isn't so noticeable. I guess that's the ideal.
