Girl of My Dreams

Been searching high, been searching low For a gal I could spend my life with Found one but she's got a pimply bum And real bad breath, take a whiff! She's no dreamboat, sunken ship perhaps She walks with a limp and she stutters I've just got no luck, in a quandary I'm stuck Soon be old and decrepit, and I mutter Maybe it's me that might be the problem No Adonis though at one time I thought so Just coz I dribble and spit in the street Down inside I'm really quite sweet though! Surely there's a chance that I'll find her soon They say there's a mate for all lovers I'm sure she's out there, a gal I'd be proud of Not one that has wings and can hover! © Jack Ellison 2012

She doesn't sound too appealing for a poet like yourself, but I was always told there is someone out there for everyone, so do keep looking!

Oh No! Never give up hope... Maybe you'll be as lucky as my hubby... Tho they do say I have a face made for radio... And a voice that should be used under water! LOL... Hi I'm back! I'm with my Dad in Arizona while he finishes 2 more months of chemotherapy... The last one put him in the hospital... But I got him out for the moment, I can borrow his computer occasionally... your friend Carol
