Jean Murray Poet Verse

Darker Shades

I'm after seeing fifty shades
Darker than before.
I think I'm just as pretty as her.
I don't mean to be a bore.

My hair is fifty shades of gray.
My tummy's turned into two.
My breasts are not as pert as her's.
I wear size seven shoes.

But still, they have good lighting now.
I'm sure they could adjust.
Perhaps if Christian put on some weight?
Ten stone should be enough.

Wendy Rycroft February 15, 2017 at 3:02 PM Great poem Jean, did you know and this is true x all the men in Hollywood are women, and all the women are men, check it out transgender x started from birth x Jean Murray February 15, 2017 at 5:11 PM OMG Wendy....in that case I will just stick with my furry hot water bottle to keep me warm at night.

Chuck Melugin February 14, 2017 at 10:36 AM Dear Jean, This is so well written. Laugh city! You are talented in the poetry arena. My best, chuck Jean Murray February 14, 2017 at 10:55 AM Dear Chuck. Thank you for cheering me up today. It's one of those days when all of us lonely hearts need cheering. I really do believe my own press you know. I can't understand why there is not a queue of ardent admirers.

Andrea Dietrich February 13, 2017 at 6:06 PM haha. I just saw that movie. It is a guilty pleasure of mine. I enjoyed this. Jean Murray February 13, 2017 at 6:20 PM It was lusciously filmed, but a bit empty I thought. Enjoyable all the same. I hope you enjoyed it too Andrea.

Tim Smith February 13, 2017 at 12:38 PM Lol...Arthur was just telling me gray is the new black. : ) Jean Murray February 13, 2017 at 1:05 PM In that case...just imaging fifty shades Tim.

Darren White February 13, 2017 at 12:19 PM SO MUCH love this Jean, thank you for making my tummy hurt with laughter. Love to you! And good luck in the contest Jean Murray February 13, 2017 at 12:22 PM Laughter is the best medicine Darren. Hope you are well on your way to recovery.

Just James February 13, 2017 at 7:46 AM Lighter shades of reading...what fun. Enjoyed it! Jean Murray February 13, 2017 at 10:23 AM That's good James. You gotta have fun.

Kim Rodrigues February 12, 2017 at 9:38 PM LOL! The older I get the more beautiful everyone is! Beauty is deeper than hair, boobs, butts, etc... when you find yourself saying ooh la la to the one that is broken in...bwahahah...love it! Jean Murray February 13, 2017 at 4:26 AM I agree with you Kim. What's truly absurd is the fixation modern society has on so called beauty. Our daughters are under fierce pressure to fit that mold. Now more than ever. It's so unfair.

Ilene Bauer February 12, 2017 at 6:47 PM very funny, jean! Jean Murray February 12, 2017 at 7:44 PM Thank you for saying so Ilene. It certainly is absurd.
