Ice Cream Sundae

Ice cream sundae
on our steamy honeymoon

Strawberries on top
Hell! we don’t need no spoon
Shared between our Tongues
salves those shrivelled prunes
God! she’s one sweet Dish
and it’s still only Afternoon 

I scream Sunday!
on this torrid day in June

Dear David, such a sensual sundae and Sunday! I especially adored; “God! She’s one sweet dish / and it’s still only afternoon” - oh seductive rapture!! Love your use of the monorhyme too! A creative and luscious poem. A winner for me! Warmest wishes.. ~Susan

Heya Susan, thank you so much for seeing the playful side of my poem about a couple of newlyweds, enjoying a sweet honeymoon in the sun, alas it was all too much for the contest sponsor, and got the axe for it’s salacity content, cheers David

Behave Dave, you know the drill! It is you who spoiled us with your shameless audacious dish! I admire your mojo.

Heya Anaya, I really thought the freshly attained marriage license would allow a little mojo fun with the strawberry sundae, but upon reflection it was done in achingly bad taste, cheers David

Getting a little steamy. Don't let a little brain freeze spoil the mood. Cute stuff my friend.

Thank you David, no time for sightseeing on our honeymoon, we was much too busy, I’m sure you get the idea, cheers David
