Jack Ellison Poet Narrative

Love In the Twilight Years

Can we talk about love in the twilight years

Ain't not no expert I must confess

But the older I get, find myself ogling young ladies

Might even think this old guy's obsessed

Not at all my friends, I can take 'em or leave 'em

Now what the hell am I saying

Prettying up the landscape more than us guys

Hope there's plenty upstairs I'm praying

How boring to live an eternity without ladies

Sure wouldn't look forward to that

Rather go down below where the bad girls are

They'd certainly adjust my thermostat

I've led a clean life for the most part I'd say

But for a couple of minor infractions

Like running around with a bunch of loose women

All part of a young lad's passion

Let's talk about love, a favourite subject of mine

Ain't not no expert I must confess

The older I become, the more decrepit and sad

Going to miss seeing girlies undress

Carol Eastman March 14, 2015 at 11:14 AM Ain't No Expert? Honestly, if your not... then who else? Expect you to some day teach Dragon the Birds and the Bees... Beside that one eats bird seed and the other stings! Jack Ellison March 14, 2015 at 3:35 PM You're right, I should be an expert at my age! However I still don't think any different than when I was 20 years younger so don't go by me!!! xxx

Tim Smith March 14, 2015 at 7:29 AM need to get more powerful glasses to see them.. Jack Ellison March 14, 2015 at 7:34 AM That's the down side but to compensate we must make more use of our hands!...
