I Am a Secret Flower Boy

On my every pair
  of underwear
I have drawn
  a flower

Pink tulip here
  red rose there
I take them off
  to shower

My wife, amazed
  She questions me
"Is the the man
  I married?"

I say, "Yes, dear. Just
  be glad my blooms
don't pollinate ~ with
  bees instead of faeries

Hilarious - The wife was beginning to ponder, Is everything coming asunder. Whatever next, I’m sorely vexed, Will it be just a nine days wonder?
