A Testing Time For Tess

A clumsy young lady named Tess Spilt superglue over her dress She got stuck to her seat Said words I’ll not repeat Then undressed to escape the mess Tess stood in her nude underwear Male colleagues did nothing but stare She’d removed her new dress And one guy did confess They secretly hoped she was bare 4/17/18

Me thinks that Tess spilt that glue intentionally and is perhaps a bit of an exhibitionist xxoo Happy Wednesday

- She can buy herself a new dress ... easily done :))) - Wood glue, super glue, contact glue, and much more ... most can be glued and repaired - Remember: always have clean underwear :) - hugs // Anne-Lise :)

Tess certainly has a wild side. I think she needs a few friends. I'll see if I can dig some up.

Thanks Line, I wrote the first one as a follow up the Tess Tickle poem I posted earlier and scribbled down the second part after I posted the glue limerick as I thought I could add to the story:-) hugs jan xx
