Secret Rendezvous

I was happily married, but there was something I adored. I couldn't resist the temptation, of needing something more. So good to feel on my warm lips, I couldn't wait. In the middle of the night, I didn't feel guilty, or hesitate. I snuck out of the bedroom, not wanting to wake my wife. My conscience didn't bother me, as I dreamed of this, all night. Quietly I went downstairs, for my secret rendezvous. Open the refrigerator door, and had three scoops. Michael Tor

Grand! There's nothing quite like a savory ice cream to spike the sugar rush in so many of us. Your ending is a clever twist on a bedroom escape to a sweet indulgence. Cheers Brian

I never expected this sort of a turn of events, Michael ! I guess it must have been a hot day. You have made me wish for such an adventure in the night.....!Much enjoyed your naughty escapade.

Thank you Valsa. I wanted to lead the reader in the wrong direction, lol. My wife when I showed her this poem told me to get her some vanilla ice dream lol. It reminded her of when she sometimes has an urge to indulge in ice cream and the fridge is empty. So she made me run up to the Ice cream parlor to get some lol. She smiled after reading the poem and said from now on I am walking down in the middle of the night to make sure you are just getting ice cream. Lol. My response was , you know me better than that. Thank you for stopping by Valsa. Blessings to you...

Exceptional, Michael. Your wife is so lovely that she won't even notice the three scoops that are missing. I enjoyed the escalation of the suspense and the unexpected resolution as well as the humor. I hope all is well with you. Greetings, dearest friend Michael.

Totally charming ~ your wife will never notice those three missing scoops... you hope.

Michael Tor
Date: 9/19/2022 10:44:00 AM

I hope, but usually If she gets to the fridge before I do and if it is vanilla flavor, I know I am off to the store, to buy more lol. She loves vanilla Line and I should just buy an ice cream machine, to make it for her to save on the many trips I have made in the middle of the night when she realizes that I had the last three scoops lol...

What's your flavor, Michael? Liked your sense of humor in this one.

Michael Tor
Date: 9/19/2022 10:39:00 AM

Jenna I love all the flavors it is really hard to pick one. My wife loves vanilla, I do to, but chocolate is great also, and strawberry. I can't make up my mind Jenna lol. You got me thinking, how about a banana split they have all three. lol. Thanks for stopping by.
