A Gigolo

How to describe love, well I'll give it a shot
Like your first two wheeler, that's saying a lot

Like your very first ride on a ferris wheel
What an absolute thrill can't believe it's real

Suddenly that annoying girl next door
Creates a stirring right down to your core

When wrestling with her she was one of the guys
Now its different when you look in her eyes

Her lips seem more lush and inviting now
Think I just blew a gasket, holy cow

Oh those were the days as if it was yesterday
The feeling still there but it's now just wordplay

Maybe I'll come back when my days are done
As a gigolo, yee haw, that sure sounds like fun!

My dear friend Jack, It seems you got the right idea at the wrong time! You have to come back and ask some of the ladies you "missed" this time around to do the same. I am certain they will be thrilled with the idea! Ha-ha! Good one

Naw! Come back as a Dragon! Everyone loves a Dragon... And just think! You could be the first Dragon poet laurate.... COOL... And you'd never be cold with all that built up fire power... And on a cold winters night you'd be the first person everyone wants to seek out... Think of all the perks... LOL
