An Open Book


Her pregnancy was like an open book
quite readable with just a cursory look.
She wore a gown that trailed in white
and grinned a guiltless smile as bright.
And why not, white was only a tradition,
her virginity a sold out first edition.

Oh wow, sharp and cheeky! Loved the “sold out first edition” line — that’s a brilliant punchline.

Too many today…I can’t claim to be innocent, but how nice if innocence could be reclaimed. Well done, my friend Maurice!
