Not Laying Down (Anymore)

(The Traveler) known far and wide as the “Cowboy” had become quite (Disenchanted) after reading Rhonda’s (Communiqué!) He felt as though the (Weight of the World) was unfairly placed on his shoulders. He was outraged! How dare she accuse him of any wrong doing? After (A Lifetime of Love) (The Magic Trio) as he liked to call it, had become (Two Too Square) for her tastes. The Cowboy felt all it needed was a little (Resuscitation) to become a (“Jubilant”) thing in his life once more. Then this (Ultimate Adieu) arrived from Rhonda, one of his two paramours. Rhonda the bronze (Beach Baby) was (A Legend in Life), well known at the seaside and in (The Village) for the (Racy Red) string bikini she often wore. Rhonda had become sick and tired of the cowboy and his (Clandestine) one sided trysts with two women. (Now and Forever) she wanted to be an (Opulent Orchid) in a singular (Resplendent Romance). She was fed up being some dizzy (Dream Catcher) who had become a (Suburbia Special) reality show ranked 2nd in a (Catalog of the Cowboy)s conquests. Those of us (In the Know) realized she was finally activating a long anticipated (Survival Sequence). That fatal message she sent to the cowboy had nothing but her (Death Definitions) written all over it. Grabbing only her essentials she has taken (Flight). By her actions, the (Pearl in the Oyster) of our seaside village has vowed she will no longer play (“Doubles”) with her love life. The (Pendulum) always swings two ways! *Narrative derived from the poem titles of Linda-Marie Bariana, "Sweetheart" of the Soup
