Gershon Wolf Poet Rhyme

A Married Man's Muse

Every day I went away
  Near fifty years of work
Pleasantly I spent the day
  Midst temptation's lurk

Pretty women all around
  Everywhere I turned
Dazzling smiles, alluring frowns
  For so many my heart yearned

Alas, I was a married man
  A trooper, faithful to his wife
But now she's gone, the field I scan ~
  Ponder paths untrod in life




~ This, of course, is pure fiction ~
