Light verse.


The Sensual Life

In my fair years, I mistook love for leisure,
And sensual sweets were rather roughly raided
In dainty dells secluded for the pleasure -
Illicit lingerings shady, should be shaded,
But don't suffice to hide the tainted treasure
When wayward wives plead "blameless", for what they did
While sampling the assorted sensual scenery
And grappling in the undergrowth and greenery.

I'm guilty! and I relish being wrong!
While all the world is wretched if not right!
I couldn't care a condom, short or long-
And if you must condemn me - then goodnight!
I hereby name your nipples ding and dong!
Imagining how well they'd serve me right:
I cannot be a poet, wit or seer -
So I became a mammary mountaineer.

"I'm guilty! and I relish being wrong!"
Imagine that on a T-shirt :-)))
Just kidding...
Nice verse, original rhymes, and the mammary mountaineer made me definitely ROFL :-D
Welcome on the bay!
