Your Greatest Thrill Ever

What's the greatest thrill you've ever had You probably have more than one Try keeping it clean, my dear, dear people This may be read by some young'uns Wanna know mine, well of course you do This goes back to when I was courting My very first kiss, I can still feel the thrill Loved messing around and cavorting Sure blew my whistle as I rounded the bend Snorting and huffing and puffing The top of my head started shooting out steam And I lost a bunch of my stuffing Oh to go back and experience them again Those glorious days of my youth Unfortunately they're gone and long forgotten Gonna down another gin and vermouth © Jack Ellison 2015

Awwww..this one's so sweet. You keep the memories alive by sharing them with us dear. My biggest thrill was going on a rollarcoaster for the first time. Hope there's many thrills to come! Thanks for posting! Your quatrains are priceless. Always, Laura

Writting Dragon poems with Hubby will be my crowning treat... He has such an imagination, and can be ever so sweet! He makes me laugh, and directs my way when I am lost... And keeps me writting so I can be a part of my PoetrySoup pals!
