Phillip Garcia Poet Sonnet

A Caveman's Love - For Jan Allison

No Jedi-mindtricks through poetic force,
Nor married women which for blade espouse,
Will see these sexy cheeks that face divorce
Abandon Wookie looks - Adonis vows.
Unless you’ve walked a day without my beard,
And grown exhausted beating off with sticks
The throngs of Starbucks broads smooth-features feared,
Then spare me nicks ‘n cuts by limericks.
It churns my butter blue to render strife
On rare occasions when I tell girls no -
My heart’s too huge for tears, just ask my (ex) wife(s),
Thus on this face, for them, thick hair must grow.
   So to my ‘mum’ and Jan who’d have me shave,
    I love you both like sinks I won’t deprave.

Rhonda Johnson-Saunders February 28, 2017 at 4:06 PM LOL...you can't please all the ladies, Phillip! The most important question: what does your wife think? There is some truth to the old saying - happy wife, happy life.

Daniel Turner February 28, 2017 at 2:02 PM Real men wear beards! Please, I'd rather not see your cheeks.
