Notes About The Poem

Love Letter

My Dearest Bertha baboon I’ve recently joined your baboon troop and Bertha you’re the star of the group I’ve watched you swinging in the trees Your agility brings me to my knees You sit by my side and pick off my lice we share those nits; oh they taste so nice! ‘The Funky Gibbon’ is my favourite song I taught you the words, now you sing along! There’s been no monkey business, although I’ve tried But my attraction for you cannot be denied My desire for you I cannot let pass … I’m captivated by your huge red ass! Its red colour means you’re due for ovulation Lets get it on and increase the baboon population!

It is sadly lacking on soup at the best of times Mike, I do my best to make folks smile but sometimes a more serious poem slips out and surprises people but I never know what my muse will come up with next:-) hugs jan xx

ummm I'm not sure which face is uglier, but if I were Bertha, I'd be writing a "Dear John" letter. Your humour is wack as usual lol, Jan.

Ha! What a hilarious write my friend! I really loved this delightfully funny poem! You brought the baboon's into my room by your piece, letting them run wild doing their thing all over my desk, my computer, and all of it in my mind! What a naughty baboon, wanting to increase the population! Excellent piece, Great Work!!
