Old As Dirt

How old are you? Old as dirt When I was young Men wore skirts Guys bent over Showing Big Ben Didn't wear Jockey's Way back when Men were rugged And ladies demure No skin showing But still had allure Just goes to prove Defining what's hot Is what we imagine Not what we've got Forgive us guys It's how we're built But you've been seen Looking up our kilt The moral is this Believe it or not Men chase women Till us guys get caught! © Jack Ellison 2012

That's a good one... I'm well covered but not demure... I don't want to scare anyone... LOL... I caught my Hubby 34 years ago... Do you think it's OK if I let him out of the bottle now... He says it's a bit stuffy down there... LOL

Yeahhh kilts are a special thing that men used to wear, and still do on certain occasions... what a brilliant display of humor my friend! I loved reading this incredible poem this afternoon! You have presented a crafty and intriguing piece, Great Work!!
