A Flasher At a Nudist Colony

A Flasher at a Nudist Colony

By Elton Camp

It was a long overcoat that he wore
For an act they’d never seen before

Onto the grounds he slyly crept
From the bushes suddenly leapt

“See what you think of this,”
He called out to a comely miss

The overcoat he opened wide
To reveal what it did hide

Gasps of horror he heard that day
A bashful woman even ran away

The flasher stood with an evil leer
That was the sound he liked to hear

Underneath his coat, they did spy
One fully clothed with a suit and tie

Humorous poetry is what I normally aim for and it's not easy, more so in rhythmic rhyme. I think you may enjoy a look-see at mine. Licia

Thanks, I am glad that most have had fun with this little write. Humor poems are my favorite, although I occasionally write a "serious" one. Elton

I think your poem hits the spot very well. The title arouses curiosity. Could It be a real flasher? If so, then what effect could his act possibly have in a nudist colony where everyone is already nude with their genitals exposed? Your last line is the punch line that indicates a "reverse surprise". I am sorry to explain but this is directed to the first comment. I hope the person can see the message of your poem. Great Write!

Hey John, thanks for understanding exactly what this poem is about. I'm always trying to come up with something a bit different. I love those ending "twists."

What constitutes "flashing" depends on the point of view of the one seeing it, I guess. Thanks for reading.
